WOO HOO! Steve Pearce strikes again tonight! 4 (?) RBI tonight.

9-4 in the bottom of the 9th! 😀

What a game! After the scoreless 5th, I wondered whether it would go extra innings with a 0-0 tie.

Brock Holt! Brock Holt!

Speaking of extra innings...While we talk about how exhausted the players must have been after WS game 3, consider home plate umpire Ted Barrett (age 53), who called 561 pitches thrown during 18 innings, handling and put more than 300 baseballs in play. One bathroom break after the 14th inning. Ouch!

Barrett, with a doctorate in theology, recites scripture in his head during games. His favorite during game 3: “I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me.”
