It was just crazy that Shrillary got away with claiming during the 2000 Senate (carpetbagger) campaign that she had always been a Yankees fan (growing up as a little girl in Illinois). yeah, right, sure.... especially since there was not a hint of a shred of evidence that she had ever been any kind of sports fan at all or had any prior affinity for the Yankees.

Pure dishonest political pandering, and the MSM and electorate in NY let her get away with it.

Cora’s been a great surprise. I never expected he’d do so well as a rookie manager.

Kimbrel almost pissed the game away but Red Sox held on!!

It's what Kimbrel does. He is 'off' more than he is 'on'. A lot more. His fastball is the only reason he is still in the 'pen. He needs to work on his control, obviously. It's almost like he's aiming his pitches.

If we get a Red Sox versus Dodgers World Series, the sometimes-questionable Dodgers pitching could cost the Dodgers the World Series.

My two favorite teams ... the Indians ... and whoever plays the Yankees.

Was watching “Boston EMS” yesterday on Discovery Health channel. They picked up a New Yorker who’d been involved in a car accident in the Ted Williams Tunnel.

When the EMS crew discovered that he was from NYC they asked him about the Yankees. Realizing what city he was in and who was taking care of him, he wisely said “Uh, I’m a fisherman kinda guy”, LOL.

However, he shared with them how he had assisted during 9/11 and showed them pics of him working with the first responders.

He’d suffered some back injuries during the accident and they brought him to the ER.

Things can be OK while in the stadium, although there's often a lot of verbal jousting between Yankees and Red Sox fans. It's once you get outside - after a game - where trouble can occur.

Well obviously I was outside the Stadium both before and after the game. I didn't see any Red Sox fans being attacked. And there's always verbal jousting whether you're at Fenway or Yankee Stadium.

My advice to Red Sox fans going to Yankee Stadium. Avoid the tops of Metro North Trains. You can get electrocuted.

Well, lucky you. I've seen it many times over the past 20+ years attending games in both the old and the new Yankee Stadiums.

And there's always verbal jousting whether you're at Fenway or Yankee Stadium.

Yes, that's true... in both ballparks.

My husband and I have had all kinds of expletives hurled at us by drunken Yankee fans both inside Yankee Stadium, and while walking to our car in the parking garage after games. And we did *not* provoke any of these fans.

My husband and I have never hurled any expletives at Yankee fans while at Fenway or anywhere else.

There is a former UConn player,George Springer.

Yes, George is from New Britain, Connecticut, I think. He has a big following up here in CT. I was so happy for him last year when the Astros won the WS! :-)

Boston is so hot that even handle them. Houston is going to have a lot on their hands.

I'm worried about Boston's bullpen... The sports talk show guys on WEEI call it the "Blow-Pen". Let's just say I'm not surprised Alex Cora used Chris Sale in the 8th last night.

But if the Red Soxs can settle accounts with the Yankees, and the Bronx Zoo, their stadium, which is never an easy place to beat the Yankees, then the Red Soxs,will have a few extra days to get ready to settle accounts with Houston Astros.

All my son does is complain about Boston’s pitching.
