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.

got to see Ellsbury early this year—played for Portland Sea
Dogs vs. Jays farm team in Manchester NH.

Later in the year I saw Sea Dogs play New Britain Rock Cats
and the big story that night came from Fenway as rookie
Clay Buckholz (not on postseason roster) threw a no-hitter.

Oh and it’s now 8-1.
