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.

Coco gave it up for the team on that last out. Hope he’s ok. He can pinch run in the WS, but center field has to belong to Ellsbury.

Is Eric back next year, or will he be the fall guy for this complete collapse?

i’m listening to the radio feed on MLB audio. I joined for 15 bucks because I work nights. I can listen to the games on my work PC.

Slamming into those padded walls hurts like hell. A few years ago there was an open house at Fenway on Fathers Day. I went with a buddy and each of us took turns throwing a fly ball in the direction of an outfield wall so the other could jump up, slam into the wall and catch the ball. Its padded but really...man, I swear they used concrete to pad the walls.
