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.

1,000 vials is what the records indicated. That might be one shot per day over three years.

A three year prescription? Very very long....

"Could have mixed in a change and curve a bit more."

Especially a change, and why no high heat when the batter is down in the count?

Welcome to Fenway...

Runners on 1st and 2nd and nobody out. Ortiz up at the plate and he is due.

Most doctors won’t give it to anyone who doesn’t really need it, so something is not right there.

I think Manny Ramirez has gone 0-2 virtually every time he’s come to the plate in this series and he always ends up working the count back up again and usually getting a hit or a base on balls.

If you were buying something not on the up and up, you wouldn't pay by credit card as there is a record.

I am very angry that some Drive By Media Idiot invaded Byrd's medical history.

Ugh Sox go up 1-0
