Jesus, what in god's name is Francona doing? I didn't like the move to take out Lowe, who wasn't doing that bad, and now he's bringing in the closer in the 7th 😱.

It's an elimination game. Pedro could be next out of the pen. Gotta win this game before you get to the next.

True, but I don't know if Foulke is going to go 3 innings reliabely...
 
Just wondering something, Is the RedSox ever tough of changing their name to RedSucks?

Jesus, they will fall in 4 games!!!For god sake im more proud of my Expos than being a red sox fan hehe.(OK OK here i am watching QUALITY BASEBALL when with my crappy expos i was watching AAA baseball )

No seriously, that is a major chokage.

But you know what? Those world series made me watch baseball again.As an expos fan, i wasent watching my crappy t-ball team.And when 2 great teams face each other( same as houston-stlouis), its very good to look at.

But still...4 games....

It's an elimination game but you can't sabotage the next 3 you need to win. I think it was a move to try and not be swept. I'm thinking of Pedro or Shilling if Foulke gets in trouble. Who knows at this point, I didn't see the Wakefield move coming last night.

Bottem of the 8th, Manny gets a hit, Rivera throwing fresh. At least it's exciting. (Ortiz, Tek, and Nixon up next)

You gotta get to the next game before worrying about it. You gotta win NOW or it's goodbye.

All I'm saying is everything I saw and read pointed to the Angels being the favorites (if not, at least even) in the series... This coming from two websites full of die-hard fans and the only baseball-only sports news broadcast that I know of. You bring up one thing, and yes, that does go against what I said, but that doesn't entirely disprove what I said.

die-hard fans sounds like a forum, and we all know how the eknowitalls at most forums are just blithering myopic idiots
