If Floyd can pitch a good game, and Konerko and Thome can actually get hits, we'll have this series easily.

I'm wearing my Konerko shirt today. FUKUDOME can stay in the dirty clothes pile where it belongs!

I think it's about time they changed the first round to a best of seven.


I hope they don't. It isn't necessary.

i really think they should. i know it's not a huge difference, but after 162 games to have your season decided in a best of five just seems a bit silly.

the angels had their chance with 1 out in 9th and a runner on third and blew it. After they blew it, I just knew Boston would win it.

Here's hoping for a Dodgers/RedSox world series, now that would be great.

actually, I wouldn't mind any of the remaining teams in the worlds series, just glad the Yankees aren't in it.

Well, I was 2-2 in the first round. Picked Philly and Boston right, and did not get the Tampa and LA picks right. Ah well. In the championship rounds I have:

Philly over LA in six games

Boston over Tampa in seven games

Things are so very different in Boston now. Every hint of a collapse or blown lead doesn't bring forth mentions of "curses" or anything like that.

And Fenway is still a magnificent place to see baseball played.

I was thinking about that while watching Game 3. It almost seemed like the fans knew they would win.

They didn't, of course. But that's besides the point.

Amazing.

I feel genuinely optimistic about every Red Sox game. I didn't used to. God bless Dave Roberts.
