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.

I wonder what Betancourt, Martinez, Barfield, Gutierrez, and Cabrera, think of Chavez?

I can venture a guess :0)

What a disgusting bases-loaded inning that was. The Red Sox are up to their old tricks... missed opportunity after missed opportunity.

If we lose tonight and pitch Wakefield tomorrow, the Red Sox are dead. Think Tito might pitch Beckett tomorrow instead?
