Tonites game is the key to the Series. Whoever wins tonite wins the series imo.

I'd say it's must win for the sox, not for the Indians. Wake is going to be nails, but I'm sure I'll cuss out Mirabelli multiple times, until he hits a 3 run shot in the 7th.

mirabelli v. shoppach TO THE DEATH.


never go in against a sicilian when death is on the line*.

*note: just quoting princess bride. 1st off, i hope mirabelli lets flutterballs by him, not that they'll be fluttering that much with the rain and what not. secondly, like mirabelli is sicilian lol. 3rdly, shoppach is a BAMF.

If Mirabelli is batting with 2 runners on in the 7th, that's probably a very very good sign for us.

This is probably true. Without doing any research, I would assume that there is a higher correlation between winning Game 4 and winning the series than there is for any other game (except Game 7 LDO).

That being said, I'm happy that the Sawx have to beat at least one of CC and Carmona again to win the series.

Tonites lineup is out:

Same as last night except 7 8 9 is Crisp, Mirabelli and Lugo.

No Ellsbury again. Guess that spark everyone is talking about is not happening tonite.

man the ump sucked tonight.

and i'm not saying that as a 'we got screwed comment,' we mostly sucked.

the ump was basically so bad i don't think he benefited anybody, everyone was just like 'wtf yo?'

[/ QUOTE ]


i was on the home run porch on the rail for the entirety of the game. i couldn't tell if the ump was inconsistent or if perhaps i just had significant difficulty determining inside/outside from my angle. i mean, i had a hunch it was the former, which has since been confirmed by several sources.

also, this atmosphere was unreal. unfortunately, i was standing right in front of a female who was advising manny to do some anatomically impossible things, but c'est la vie.

an absolutely great experience, and as long as you're actually on the rail, the home run porch is an outstanding place to watch a game. mind you, to stay on the rail, you can't piss or leave to get any food/drink stuffs.

I was sitting behind home plate for last night's game, and the ump was terrible.

For both teams. I know its part of the game but it makes hard on pitchers to find a groove when they can throw the same pitch twice in a row and get a different call (Westbrook and Dice-K both did it at least once).

The game was awesome, the crowd was chanting Ken-ney! before he even got into the batter's box and then he just cranked it. I really thought JD Drew was going to grab it, it looked like he was close live, but on replays maybe he was further away.

The Ortiz play where he was on second and got hit was one of those weird things that can decide a series. Both of these teams are so good, that the smallest break either way can win it or lose it.

Tonight should be a good game. Let's see if Paul Byrd can do it again.

I also stayed in the same hotel as the red sox and the same floor as francona. I saw him three times. Very nice guy.

As frustrating as posters here make me, SOSH makes almost all posters here look like rocket scientists. Someone over there had said that (and people agree with him) that Pedroia has been horrible and should be benched for...oh man, I don't even like typing it, Cora.
