And Dice-K only allowing 12 homers all season.

Ahh yes, I forgot about that comment. And stating that Upton's HR was the last hittable pitch the Rays would see that night.

Pena does not suck. One DP does not negate everything he has done so far. Papelbon and Masterston have just been amazing out of the pen for the Sox.

Youkilis and Pedroia are the most consistent Sox hitters this series. Bay is doing well also, but needs to have 2 outs and and 0-2 count first. 🙂

What's really funny is that if you told me after Game 1 (or even before) that we would be going to Game 6 up 3-2, I'd be dancing in the streets. The big key is not just how the team reacts, but how the bullpen handles this because we really need them. We got this far because of the bullpen and defense. Last night's comeback was because the defense and bullpen failed. That said, I was screaming at the screen to Maddon to take out Balfour, Wheeler, and Howell when each one starting having issues. He's quick to take out good relievers after 4 outs, but last night, he was slow when they were struggling.

I can see you've never been there but with your attitude maybe that's for the best. Fans in fenway love and respect all of baseball and that's something you don't quite understand now is it??

What is this Steve Harvey Show bullshit on TBS? WHERE IS THE GAME?

I tuned in at about quarter till, they had a camera shot of the field during whatever their pregame show is called and the image froze just after I changed the channel. About 5 seconds or so into a frozen image they went to a long commercial break and came back with a couple minutes of some blooper show to fill the last 5 minutes of the hour. And now this crap. Me thinks there are some highly technical difficulties in the city about 25 miles away from tampa. Given the magnitude of this game, somewhat pathetic.

I think they get it via NESN..I'm watching streamed now @ very low resolution...

Thanks, but NESN is Bruins vs. Senators. TBS gets sole dibs on this game.

BTW, it's 1-0 Rays thanks to B.J. Upton. Thank you ESPN Gamecast.

Edit: It's back now.
 
If Bekett's fastball can't get above 91-92 he's gonna have another tough time with the Rays hitters again, these guys are too good for mediocre pitching..
