It was classic game between Yankees and Red sox. No wonder whole US know about it, when they clashes. For Yankees fans, it was another long gruesome game like a nite beforeýý the 14th innings game took almost 6 hoursýý It seem Red Sox lineup (especially heat of the lineup) have figure out about Tom Gordon and Mo. Mariano, the Yankees Super Closer failed to save last 2 games. Great job by Red Sox bullpen especially the Tim Wakefiled, He pitched awesome last nite. David Ortiz is da man. He scored the walk off homerun on Sunday and game winning hit last nite. He deserves all the credit. I was horrified to see such a pathetic show by both teams. Some canýt bunt and run. One thing I didnýt understand about Ortiz was the base steal. I donýt know he did it himself or it was coach call. I believe it was 12th inning (???) dude may be thinking he is a 145 lbs fast runner. Posada has a whole day to throw him out, but for sure Posada was surprised to see it. Another was Damon trying to bunt. Dude bunt so bad and in the other hand Posada made mistake catching it. If he would have dropped that ball, it would have been easily double play. I guess playing long innings last 3 nite has taken toll on these players. Both teams bullpen is so overly used that both team managers donýt even know who are available tonite if game goes xtra innings. Schilling will try to out duel John Leiber tonite. Schilling got another chance to quiet 55,000 Yankees fans tonite. I would like to see more patient Yankees lineup tonite. They are trying to hit long balls like Red Sox did in first 3 games. Ciaro was in 2nd with 1 out and still couldnýt advance to third. Guys are forgetting about the baseball fundamental. Yankees are back home now hope they will play good ball as they did last week. Boston dude said ýBTW, Ask Scheffield how he feels about the "walking disasters"? Mr. Balco thinks he is Wall St material because he cuts his hair short and puts on a suit. Just like A-Rod thought he was tough because he played in the Bronx :) ý >>> whatýs up with the name??? thatýs low brother. Sheffield, BALCO and AROD??? It doesnýt make sense to meý.. what are you trying to say??? It seem like Yankees wants to beat Red Sox in front of their fans in Yankees stadium to clinch the yet another AL Championship ;)
