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.

If Wedge is smart, he won’t burn out his bullpen tonight. Nobody likes to give up, but the odds are against the tribe tonight.

Sox need another TD and I will feel safe.

Might even be able to let Gag-Me pitch an inning or two.

If the Sox score 15 more runs, they might let Gagne pitch the 9th.
