I was logging on specifically to point out your prior post, but I see you've already seen the error of your ways. You gotta have faith. Nice comeback. In spite of Manny not caring at all about winning or RSN, y'all pulled it out....
Enough sappy talk with a Red Sox fan.
Let's go Rox!!
WOW. 
Two great games...very high scoring...dominating...hope they can bring it with them to Denver...

I will say this as a Sox fan, they lucked out having Cleveland in a long series or the same fate that happened to the Yankees would have happened to them.. IF they played 100 times boston probably wins 60, probably the same for the Yankees, but they caught them in a short series. This is where i feel i have to thank the 19times a year we play the Yankees, they are battle tested obviously, the Sox and Yanks are built for long series and this proved it once again.

So, who won?

Well, you Bosox fans made it through. Nice job.
The rest of the season is a formality leading up to the Red Sox being crowned World Series champs.
No way the Rockies have a chance after sitting for 9 days...21 out of 22 won't look so great after being swept in the Series.

What trying to jinx us with some kind of reverse psychology here or something??
Who?
Me?
Well, OK, you're right.
But I don't think it will matter. Boston is the better team.

Unfortunately, the only Sox pitcher to beat the Rox this year is off the Post-season roster.
Of course, trying to throw a knuckler in the thin-air of Denver might've been a lost cause anyway.
We'll see how Lester does.
leaving wakefield off the roster leads to another interesting decision. I really thought they would dump gagne and take someone else. but now do they keep gagne and leave either tavarez, lopez or snyder off the roster? lopez was horrific in the alcs but he is the only lefty outside of okajima. decisions.
The problem with Lopez is he can't get lefties out. That to me makes him pretty much useless. The sox don't really have a lefty specialist. I would put either Snyder or Tavarez on the roster. Especially with Wakefield out they need a long relief guy.

I neglected to mention that Wake was replaced with Snyder. Dunno how I feel about Kyle over ol' crater face. If this was on ESPN instead of FOX I would've wanted Tavarez just so I could hear Jon Miller's over-done pronunciation of his name. "And taking the mound for Boston, Hchhooleeyan Tavaaachhhhhrrrrez"
Cracks me up every time.

Well the better team doesnt always win, im sure as a Yankee fan you have come to that realization lately. And the redsox are such punks for saving face and keeping Gagne on the roster instead of Taverez, goddddd just admit ya screwed up and leave it at that but noooooooo they have to play the other card and for what to have him pitch in a 9-2 game. Bothers me alot they just couldnt admit they messed up on that one, hell look at the yankees, Kevin Brown, Igawa, Weaver,Karsay, Vazquez,Contreras, Wright, and i havent even gotten off the pitching mound yet. At least they sorta admitted those guys sucked ass.

Beckett this season (and postseason) has to be the most dominant pitcher in quite some time...

And its funny how everyone was bashing him last year.

Pitching Timlin and Gagme in the 8th and 9th and saving some wear on Beckett was a good move. The rocky pitchers had the deer in the headlight look, not a good sign for them.
Snore...I was asleep by the 5th.
I was right about Colorado...the layoff cooled them off completely. They will not win a game.
Boston in 4.
