    Like I said, Matsui OWNS Fenway.

    I think that does it.

    I say 8-5 Yankees final

    I guess Francona really doesn't want to use the bullpen. 115 pitches, 8 runs allowed, 5 homers.

    edit: ok, he finished with 120 pitches

    1. You can't accept a bet after its outcome is determined.

    2. The reason the bet was offered was specifically because of that stipulation that pointed out how Beckett was pitching at the time. Unless you're saying you predicted this turnaround and additional defensive miscues on the part of the Yanks.

    3. Whatever the case, I'm glad they left Beckett out there. :)

    wow, Youkilis drilled that one. Just got under it a little.

    Almost 8-6.

    Holy shit, did Steve Phillips just say something that makes sense?

    The end is nigh!

    Swisher takes away the possibility of another cheap hit.

    game over

    I was spacing out. What did he say? I thought he made a good observation earlier when they rolled the replay of A-Rod being nowhere near the bag.

    Yankees need some insurance runs, keep Boston on their heels.

    He was saying that he thought the Wagner claim was in part for off season flexibility... that the Sox could shop Papelbon this winter. He hasn't been as dominant this year, and Wagner has an option year left as insurance if Bard can't handle the closer's role.

    they're chasing fastballs from saito that are brim high.

    two straight batters go down swinging on high fastballs that weren't remotely close.

    Dude, if the Yanks can't hold a four run lead with three outs to go, they don't deserve to keep Boston on their heels.

    This team is just psychotic..how can they look so inept against a minor leaguer and then ding 5 HRs against Beckett the next day? I guess we'll take it though.
