WOW! What a play by A-Gone to end it.

Finally, I'm rewarded for sticking with one of these games!  I have an 11 hour work day, I have to be up in 5 hours, but I have a Sox win to be happy about and there is an invention called coffee.  Good night Jim, it was fun.

Holy shit, what an excellent game. It was long but a lot of fun and I'm glad the Sox got the win. It might have been a momentum swing if Tampa had pulled it off. Totally awesome.

It sure was fun Doug, glad you could stick it out.

Definitely would've been a moemntum swing for Tampa and it sucks for them because any other division and they are contenders.  Now they are in trade B.J. Upton mode.  But hey, they should thank their lucky stars they aren't even in a tougher division like the N.L. Central (I know, I know, I can't let that go).

What's probably going to get overlooked is Beckett is obviously healthy. 

20 minutes 'til work, sipping this damned iced coffee.

Oy vey, not only do I get a Kyle Weiland game, but I also get a game where Ortiz is suspended.  Well, I guess it beats seeing Ortiz get injured and being out for a few months after like the game I was at in '08.

I've been spoiled so far, three Lester starts, three Beckett starts, Manny's 500th home run, now it's time to pay the piper.

Hmmm, I don't like where this one is going...7-7 in the 7th.

Yeah seriously, if Tito wants to call me to throw a few pitches, he can activate me.  I'll take one for the team.

Remember the good old days when Tampa Bay had a bullpen like this?

Yeah, that O's reliever was way too pumped coming into the game...back to Norfolk for him.

There's a good chance we might win two games today!

I hate Mondays, it's my 11 hour work day and it usually is awful.  But between the Red Sox, work being somewhat tolerable for a Monday, and the announcement of the Laurel and Hardy set, this is actually a pretty cool day.

Add to that the Yankees are losing to the Rays right now. So far the marathon game hasn't hindered either team.

Finally, I get to see Williams play for the Red Sox!  I've heard so many great things about him, but he looks different than the guy they carted out at the '99 All-Star game.

Geez, this is looking like a football score.

1-0, 15-10...Red Sox winning every which way. I think they will put in some extra innings of sleep now.

I hope we can save more of those runs for tomorrow night, I have a feeling we'll need them.  Heck, we needed most of them tonight.  We're getting lucky though, as we definitely need Lester and Buchholz healthy if we want a chance in the postseason.  I think Lester will be OK, but Buchholz is taking a while.

That was one EXCELLENT ball game between Boston and Seattle tonight!  Would not want to be a Seattle fan right now, I can't imagine what it's like losing 14 straight.  That kid they had pitching was impressive.

Make it 15 in a row, and surprisingly they still do not have the worst record in baseball, or the AL for that matter!

Amazingly, they were a .500 team before the streak, and now they have to play the Yanks in New York.  Ouch!

The Skanks get Seattle, the Sox get Kansas City...on paper those do not look pretty.

Hopefully Seattle ends their streak but I'm not going to hold my breath.

Yikes another long game, 1-1 in the 13th and Remy is going into intentional homer mode. Awesome game though.

The Red Sox are great at blow outs, but when they need that clutch hit, they can be so annoying.  How many times have we had a runner on third and less than two outs?  We don't have Aceves this time to give innings, so this should be interesting.
