Trivia

In Season 1 several of the victims of the Westfield High massacre share the surnames of members of the 1986 Boston Red Sox, who lost to the New York Mets in heartbreaking fashion in the World Series. Of the 15 students shot and killed by Tate Langdon, five share surnames with the Red Sox---Stephanie Boggs, Chloe Stapleton, Kevin Gedman, Amir Stanley and Kyle Greenwell. In addition there are two surnames that match names from an historic match-up between the Red Sox and New York Yankees in the 2004 American League Championship Series---Mueller and Rivera. Among the 15 students killed were Jason Mueller and Michael Rivera. In Game 4 of the ALCS Red Sox third baseman Bill Mueller drove in the tying run off Yankees closer Mariano Rivera to keep the Red Sox from being swept in the series. Boston won that game and the next seven in a row to win their first World Series title since 1918. Executive Producer Brad Falchuk grew up a fan of the Boston Red Sox, which explains the references.
