NOTES: This is the first time since the start of the three division era that the two LCS series have each matched the two best records in their league (96-66). Computer baseball sim Imagine Sports/Diamond Mind Baseball ran the 2007 ALCS 1,000 times, and the Red Sox won 59% of the time. If the Red Sox won game 1, they won the series 72.5% of the time, and if Cleveland won, the Indians won 59% of the time.

OK we like him now!

Drew had hit .313 in the ALCS before that hit. He hasn't been the problem recently.

Francona looks like a genius for sticking with Drew.

And now a walk.

When Carmona comes out of the game we can sing, to the
tune of a famous Knack song,
Na na na NA NA na NA
na NA na na NA
Na na na NA NA na NA
Bye, Carmona!

It was pretty easy. We have no RF depth. Ellsbury doesn’t have the throwing arm.

What the hell is Carbona doing? He’s walking everyone AGAIN and just gave up 4 RUNS???

GET HIM OUT OF THERE! I feel like this game is already over for Tribe fans.

What is up with Carbona? This guy has lost whatever he had prior to this series.

He’s turning 24 years old in two weeks? Pitching Game 6 in the playoffs on the road is a lot to ask of someone that young.
