because Boston may be the most resilient team in the American League, if not in all of baseball. ...It has been the Yankees that have hung around all season with the glut of injuries, yet Boston could not take advangage. Talk about spin!

Bingo! Yanks will clean their clock, as Boston will revert to its usual station in life: SECOND, behind the Yankees.
And when Matsui and Sheffield come back, turn out the lights in Fenway and watch the rest of the season on TV!!!!

My point exactly. The Red Sox will be living off of the 2004 comeback win for eternity. The fact they have one ONE world championship since 1918 doesn't seem to enter into their thinking. Meanwhile the Yankees have lost their 2 top offensive players in Matsui and Sheffield, Arod is hitting only .285 and their pitching for the most part has been cobbled together.
Even with all that they STILL are 2 games up.

Got tickets behind home plate for Fridays game between The Angels and The Yankees. (Birthday prezzy!).
Looking forward to seeing two of my favorite players - Derek Jeter and A-Rod.
As an Angels fan - I still hope we win but it should be a good series.
