That's just in the WS, home-field for the first two rounds is still up for grabs. Shoulda been more specific about that....
Trot with the two-run shot. Wonder how long that was between homers for him? Who would've thunk we'd be this competitive in a doubleheader with Snyder and Jarvis as our starters.
What a relief that we're spared the final indignity of letting the Yanks wrap up the divison in our presence.

Unless the yankees completely collapse, I dont see them losing it to the tigers. The tigers are just horrible right now and they have 3 against CWS still left. The yankees have the easiest sched left too.
Just tuned in in time to see posada get a cheap jack double and Hansen come in to make mincemeat out of Matsui.

Nope, I guess all 3 of you are sucking @ss? Did I read that wrong?
Hansen a bit wild tonight, but overall looked good.
Lopez was awesome against Abreu, outside corner at the knees 3 straight pitches for the K.
Boston has a young version of Mike Myers.
Now we'll see the real Mike Myers, against Papi.

Kapler = worthless.
God, I can't wait until I never have to see Kapler play again. What a bum!
The Sox roster, even expanded, is pathetic. Kapler and Mirabelli as PH?

Myers must think he's still in the Red Sox BP.

@ ESPN They keep saying Giambi hasnt hit a single HR since Aug 20th which was also against the RED SOX!! SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!! UGH

He's hurt, but I did forget about him.
Youks could have PH.
I swear, I've never seen Kapler do anything but hit weak little rollers and pop up. All those muscles going to waste.
The only bad thing about this comeback is that Jeter will probably get another AB.
Krapler should just retired and start doing male modeling for some kind of shows/magazine stuff
God I was thinking-- man I can't believe Tito is letting Lopez pitch to Posada...
But then I realized.
Coco Crisp sucks.

What a sweet catch by Coco! Man, if he could be consistent at the plate he'd be money.

A future Governor for California?
I like the way Lopez looked against LHH, but he lucked out against Posada.
Jackson keeps calling Lopez "Myers."
Tito did get his LOOGY and he's younger and throws harder than Myers.
A nice at bat by Coco. Damn lucky to boot.
Wow, nice 5 bounce throw coming from shallow center. Crisp could have done much better (maybe a 3 bouncer)
It all worked out, by why was Coco bunting?
Hilarious watching Williams's weak throw.
Hilarious watching Williams's weak throw.
And another steal. Where has this version of Coco been hiding?
The Sox are getting all the little breaks now. They could have used some in August.
Krapler is batting , 3 beers says he either Ked out or FO
At least the lead is safe. Judas will pinch hit and Timlin is warming up. /s

Gee, I wonder why no one took you up on that--
Three swings from Kapler: a dribbler, a pop foul and a weak miss. His Boston career in a nutshell.
Gee, is it really a good idea to have Timlin pitch 3 times in two days?
The Yankees do look like champions -- until they get into their BP.
Timlin getting hit rather hard.
Sox win! Yay! g'night.
Now if you wanted to make a "IM PROUD OF THESE GUYS POST"
After todays/tonights W would be PERFECT

Hey, what do you know. Dirty Water.
Well, 3 out of 4 ain't bad at all. How many hits did Jeter get today?
Yes! Sox win 2, Jeter's streak is over.
It doesn't mean much, but it's a little something.

Yeah! Dirty water.
thank you 
payback time is bitter sweet!! we nearly swept them!! if it wasnt WMP horrible butchered plays ( 2 times ) we might have had a chance to sweep them!!, however if someone had asked me if I thought we could take 3 out of 4 against MFY I would have said no ****ing way!!!
EDIT: forgot to mention its nice to see Jeter snapping his 25 games hitting streak!!! AHHH! good stuff

I thought Timlin looked fantastic last night. What more can you ask from him than throwing 93 with tons of movement at the knees? He touched 95 on one of his pitches. He threw 9 strikes in 11 pitches and got his second save of the day. I wonder if any other Sox pitcher has ever recorded two saves in the same day at the Toilet. I kind of doubt it.

I think i'd hit 90 on an ESPN gun and I can't break a wet paper bag with a fastball. Point taken though, good that he's locating a little better and not walking tons of guys. I'm still glad he's not our permanent solution at closer (get well Papelbon).
