ahhhhh hemmmmm

just got back from the game. ahhh what a night
it looked bleak my dad wanted to leave at 11:30 cuz he had work at 6:00 but we stayed of course.
The MVP of the game goes to the fat dude who took his shirt off in the 7th inning when we were trailing 5-0. He got the crowd going a bit, not just the people around him, I could see him across the stadium he got everyone going. Still very quiet in there. I was at the World Series last year when Pap came in and Dropkick was playin, felt like I was at a concert. This year people were snoozin, it was terrible, but even after 7-0 the fat dude got the crowd goin. IF they come back to win this series he should be given season tickets for life. Great game. Series is over by the way, Sox in 7 then im gettin my free mattress when they sweep the Phils

once coco hit that game tying single this series was over. Phils pack your bags and book your hotels for Boston

A part of me doesnt even care if we lose this series now. At least we finally put up a fight and didn't let them clinch on our homefield.

I think Bill Simmons wrote a great article about last night:

he pretty much speaks for all legit Sox fans on this one, I think.

Killadelphia
10/17/08, 07:07 AM
This is a double-edged sword. In a way, I want this to go all 7, that way the pitching rotations are a little screwy for the WS.

But then I want it to end ASAP so both teams in the WS are having somewhat of a layoff. We'll see what happens.

The good news is that if Tampa wins, Philly will be able to practically practice at their own spring training facility.

Also, I still can't believe all of those Red Sox fans left.

a lot of fans didn't leave? the crowd was incredible last night. they were on their feet cheering Pedroia on when we were down 7-0 in the 7th inning. if you listened to peter gammons on espn radio this morning, thats all he talked about .. the mystique of fenway and how the fans were going nuts, even when our asses were getting handed to us.

obviously some fans are going to take off early in that situation, at any ball park, but there were relatively few fans who left considering the circumstances.

can't believe my 2 roommates got to be there. if only mccain wouldnt say pork barrel spending so much.

I woke up this morning in the same disbelief as last night. Its times like this I wish I was in Boston....or at least had gone to the Boston sports bar in the city.


Amazing game. In a way I don't care how this series turns out. I will never forget this game, kicking one of my roommates out of my room because he was there when the Rays scored the first 5 runs and making another stay in my room because Papi hit a home run with him sitting on my bed. I was down, out, and slightly depressed the Sox season was coming to an end (as im sure everyone was), but this is still the Boston Red Sox and it is still Fenway Park. I love it!

exactly how i feel. i thought bill simmons said it perfectly when he said that all sox fans really wanted to see now was the team put up a fight ... and they did that. of course i want them to win and im going to be a nervous wreck tomorrow night, but i was so resigned to the fact that the season was over that last night, in itself, seems like a huge achievement. it'll be a much better winter knowing we at least went out fighting.

I saw the last four innings of the game last night at Bill's Bar, it was insane. Walking by and near Fenway after to go back to my friends dorm was so much fun. At one point I walked right by Chip Caray who was just standing there, he looked very lost and confused. I should have asked him how pumped he was that the Sox won.

Double play, thank god. Beckett throwing 91-93 is trouble...I still think they should have started Lester. Hopefully Beckett can at least keep us in this game.

Rotoworld has confirmed that a power outage in Atlanta caused the blackout. I think MLB is at fault here.

They could have delayed it then at least, if they realized it wasn't going to be fixed for awhile, then they have to start the game but they really could have waited 20 minutes I think.

It could have been a better throw...but if you can't glove a ball that bounces to your waist, you shouldn't be at first

Scott Weber
10/18/08, 06:06 PM
the thing is, i actually think shields is himself. shields works by throwing strikes early and making batters protective of the plate, expanding the zone as the game progresses, and by innings 3 and 4 he's cruising. but this ump's zone is so ridiculously tight that he's not going to get anything but a literal strike so that's going to prove problematic for him.

Major League Baseball spokesman Rich Levin said MLB was unaware there was a problem until the broadcast failed to come on the air. No consideration was given to delaying the start of the game because the starting pitchers already had warmed up, Levin said.
