A sign of things to come? The Red Sox just beat the Yankees in a great comeback win. Shea Hillenbrand's 8th inning two run homer against Mariano Rivera was just incredible. That makes it two in a row the Sox have taken from the Yankees. I'm sure all the other Red Sox fans here at ATOT are just as excited about this year's team as I am.

How BoSox of you to get a woody, or portion thereof, over a victory in April. Yeah, I guess it's time to make October plans.

There's just something about a win against the Yankees that brings a smile to even the most disheartened Bostonian :D

A win is a win whether it's in April or in September.

Also, after the Yanks won 7 straight against the Devil Rays and Orioles, the media was ready to crown them winners of the American League.

Some said they would be next team to have four 20 game winners ala the Orioles back in the day.

This was a great game - the Yanks made a lot of errors and mental mistakes you usually don't see.

Also Rivera did not look like the Rivera of old.

This game may or may not set the tone for the season.

But baseball is a marathon, not a sprint :)

Celts are in the playoffs, looks like they'll be in the third spot. Bruins look to have the first spot nailed down. Pats won the Super Bowl and Brady is on the cover of SI. The Red Sox have beat the Yankees twice in a row now. This must be the year. The stars are aligned.

Surely former Yankee Scott Brosius was somehow responsible for Rivera blowing today's game.

I mean Rivera never blows a save just ask him who cost the Yanks game 7 of last years world series





Go Sox

Not to worry Capn the Bruins should handle the Penguins easily tonight whereas the Leafs have a tough game in Ottawa tonight.
