Missed Opportunity
If Dave Roberts steal in the 9th inning of game 4 of the 2004 ALCS against the Yankees was the turning point in the teams championship run, last nights failure to score in the 2nd inning could be the same kind of turning point [of course in the other direction] for this year's Red Sox. In the second inning last night, the Sox has the bases loaded [Manny on 3rd, Lowell on 2nd and Drew on 1st] and finished out the inning with a shallow flyout and a double play to end the inning. The Indians went on to score 2 runs in the bottom of the 2nd and won the game 4 to 2. Let's hope next week we're not looking back on last night's 2nd inning and thinking how it could have been different if they had scored 1 or 2 runs.

Agreed! Little Sydney is Boston's newest Sox fan, and she is getting very nervous about this series. I personally think she will watch ANYTHING on TV just to stay up, but I am always the cynic.

Yes you are a cynic but I think you may have nailed this one on the head. If she had a choice between American Idol til 10pm or watching the Red Sox play til 11pm she will take Sanja every day and twice on Sunday's :)
