Actually, I do in fact believe that Pedro will pitch a masterful game tonight. He wants to prove the Yanks aren't truly his daddy -- and he wants to prove to Schilling that he's not out of the running for the Sox ace. Besides, how many friggin' times can the Yanks expect to smack him around?

Not to worry - the good news is that we can plug in Derek Lowe for Schilling, and the Sox will smack Jon Leiber around tonight.

OK.....so NOW what's the plan? :lol:

This will just make the Sox eventual triumph all the more epic. All we have to do is win 4 of the next 5 against the Yankees in October. Pretty simple......... :eek:

Lowe in for Schilling? Then I'm worried! I'd rather see the Doctors come up with an ankle brace.

My prediction is that there will be some exciting games remaining!

I think it's over for the Sox. They may take one of the next two at Fenway, but that's it. I can see it now:

"Uh, sorry Derek. Kurt's getting the ball this game. The ump said we can have him pitch from a wheelchair, which should still be better than the stuff you've been bringing lately." - Terry FrancoMa

I call St.Louis over the Yanks in 7.

A pessimist is rarely disappointed. :D

I didn't make it till 130AM to see Ortiz' home run, but at least they have a pulse.......only 3 more in a row to go.......

Errr... ummm.... How about them Pats??


At least the Sox have guaranteed they won't be swept - and we can still hope - after all they one 3 in a row vs. Anaheim, including two away games, exactly what they have to do in the next 3 vs. NY (of course it was the Angels, not the Yankees - and no Angel was on fire like Matsui has been).

Well, if the Patriots can win 20 in a row, the Red Sox can very well win 4. Right now looks troubling, but Rivera will burn up again. :angry:

Dammed fine baseball!!!!! It's a shame someone has to lose. Gotta feel for Varitek having to try and catch that knuckleball. :roll:

A great game. Ortiz coming through again was no surprise. The quality of the Red Sox relief pitching was a very pleasant surprise.

It was frustrasting to see Pedro left in a little too long - it seemed so obvious that he was, once again, tanking soon after 90 pitches.

Wow - just when I was thinking it was dumb to keep Bellhorn in there when the Sox could put Pokey in, Bellhorn goes and hits a 3 run homer. Hat's off to Mark B!!

5th inning, Bosox 8 hits to 3, 4-0 Boston on top. Maybe it's half over. I did predict the last games will be interesting. Do you find it interesting?! What a game, does it get any better than this?!

OMG! Did you see A-Rod? If you can't win fairly, cheat...slap (hit) the ball out of the competitions hand to get on base.

After seeing that, I am SO glad that the Red Sox won!

I'm exhausted! Thank goodness tonight will put an end to these late nights! :beer:

Actually, I'm hoping for another round of late nights - with Sox games played (and won) in the Central time zone.

Just wondering...
...anyone planning to watch the game tonight?!

Edit:
Watching with friends at home?
Watching with friends at their place?
Watching at a sports bar?
