Last night’s game may go down in Red Sox Nation as the most exciting game that nobody actually watched!
Admit it….many, many fans turned off the TV or radio well before the 7th inning.
I did. And—although I am a bit ashamed of my lack of faith, it was simply too painful to continue witnessing the unraveling of my team—at HOME, no less!
What a huge surprise to learn the news this morning! And then to turn to ESPN for the nonstop replays of all the clutch hits! Ortiz (whom I think most major league pitchers have figured out) finally connected with a big one. J.D. Drew? HUGE.
The heart of this team is something to behold. And although I must admit that the Tampa Bay Rays are the better team this year, I’m just happy that our last game at Fenway didn’t end with the visitor celebrating on OUR field!
Incredible to think that the Rays were a perfect 38-0 this season when leading by 3 or more runs. To have that streak end in the fashion that it did could wreak havoc on a young team….let’s hope so!!
Tito, you should start Jon Lester-NOT Josh Beckett in Game 6. There will be no Game 7 without a win! If it DOES get to a 7th game, I believe the Sox will win—and of course, EVERYBODY in the bullpen is a potential pitcher.
GO SOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
