RED SOX!
Why talk about the debates or the fact that John McCain showed up on Letterman tonight when my boys - The Boston Red Sox - who were down 3 games to 1 in the ALCS, and down 7-0 in the 7th inning this evening, decided to come back.It starts with Dustin Pedroia hitting a homer while I am not watching the game, followed by a David Ortiz - yes, Papi hit something tonight - hitting a 3 run homer and next thing you know, it is 7-4 and it's still a game.
In the 8th inning, the Rays walked Jason Bay, thinking they could get past JD Drew - and any other night they probably could have - hence JD's homer to right was completely unexpected and the game was suddenly 7-6 in the 8th. Oh wait, did I forget to mention Coco Crisp's at bat at the bottom of the 8th that scored a runner therefore it became tied 7-7?
Next thing you know, it's the bottom of the ninth, the crowd has been on their feet for 2 and a half innings, there are two outs, two men on, JD Drew is back up...all he needs is a base hit...and he gets it: a sweet line drive that should have been caught but was missed and Youkilis crosses the plate and the Sox win it 8-7.
Unfreakin' believable.
But then again...maybe not so much.
BELIEVE!
