Holy crap.  Do the Sox even have bats with them when they are going to the plate?

Yes, yes they do.

Especially Papi and Salty.

Amazing finish to a game I almost gave up on. we go to Detroit to win at least 1.

Wow!  Just wow.  Talk about a team with fight.

Fuck!  I was listening to the horrors while working and then had to turn off the sound for a conf call and missed the miracle win!  GO SOX!  GO BIG PAPI!

That police officer or security guy... whatever... was funny to watch.  The player lands on his head and this dude takes a step or two toward him and then suddenly walks away and back toward the gate opening in the fence as if to say, "Ehh, not my department."

Woo hoo!  Dodgers!!!  

 

(Ducks from Al's show flying through the room.)

Lackey holding his own vs the Verlander juggernaut. Still 0-0 bottom 5. on pins and needles.

Just like that, 1-0 Sox!

Yeah, Napoli ftw (i hope).

Koji in at 8 2/3 to save it.

Go Sox!

One big fly and two HUGE strikeouts with men at 1st and 3rd!  So wish I could actually watch a game and drink a beer instead of listening on a computer while working.      And yes, I'll stop whining about work soon.

3 outs away. Go Koji. Al, sorry for the sucky work demands. Wish for a quick resolution.

And Koji comes through again!

Woohoo! 1-0 stands. Good road win.

RED SOX WIN!!!  2 games to 1!  As Gene says, this was really all they had to do in Detroit.

 

Also on Gene's sage advice, I am ok with the Dodgers getting a maximum of 2 wins to give them false hope and also to wear out the Cards a bit more before the Red Sox - Cardinals Series.  

Congrats to the Sox fans.  Dang, so many pitching duels in both of these series.  

Great game I thought

Oh, for fuck's sake, Peavy.

Well said.

That was a great big pile of shit.

Not pretty, so far.

Ugly game for Sox fans last night.  Turning point was Petey not fielding that grounder for a DP in the 2nd.  Get the double play, and we're just down 1-0.  Not saying Peavey was on fire or anything, but getting out of that 2nd just down 1 would have helped his state of mind.

 

Sox hitters need to come alive tonight.

Time to see who is wearing the big boy pants now, in both series.  Getting interesting...
