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.

Like I said last night.....giving up outs is stupid. I very rarely believe in a bunt. Thanks Tribe.

Watch the right field corner and the triangle in centerfield. They will make for some very interesting plays.

Hey, thats enough of a sample size for liberals to draw wide-ranging conclusions and propose sweeping legislation or at least push a court case thru to the Supreme Court. < /sarcasm>

He looks like the guy who was crapping his pants as a closer last year in Fenway.

Good things usually happen when there are base runners on when Papi and Manny come up. Pitchers get ancey.
