Red Sox/Indians ALCS

blake with a pop fly that falls in front of crisp, and lofton's steal proves important as he scores on the play

 

lofton holds the record for postseason steals, apparently

one more than henderson

 

Wow and to think, if Varitek (I believe it was him, could have been Youkilis) hits that line drive in Game 2 a tiny bit softer, the Red Sox would have been up 2-0

 

Ramirez, Ortiz and Youkilis just hit consecutive homers to cut it to 7-3

 

First time a team has hit 3 consecutive homers in ALCS and NLCS historyhmy:

 

I wouldn't mind seeing the Indians go up and and in on Manny next time he comes up to bat. He's been admiring every fly ball he's hit for the last 2 months.

 

Only other time it happened in postseason was '97 Yankees in ALDS.

 

Yeah. I believe Tim Raines was involved in that one, if I remember correctly. It was 10 years ago.

Edit: Yup. It was Raines, Jeter, and O'Neill. Good times.

 

it was classless, but maybe the fact that it's Jacobs Field played a factor.

Who knows if Manny even knows what stadium he's in, though.

 

youkilis totally butchering it

 

I think the default justification by Red Sox fans is that it's "Manny being Manny".

I wish I could chalk up everything strange I do to, "MisterMoss being MisterMoss" and have it be all OK at the end.

 

This has been a weird postseason. The series' have been short across the board, but there have been a ton of good games to make it interesting.

 

that would come in very handy, come to think of it.

 

Double play!

 

Wow. What a grab. At his apex. I didn't think he would be able to reach that. Nice play!!

 

This Is Our Country!!

 

Great now ESPN Radio won't shut up about 04

 

That ump sucks. Kenny Lofton is the man.

 

Was hoping they would make Manny hit the dirt, but getting him out is just fine. Bottom of the 8th now
