Beltran robbing Ortiz of that grand slam was awesome tho. Hope he is ok. He hit that bullpen wall awfully hard.

OMG I laughed so hard when the pitcher called for the fly ball and just let it drop.......geeze if he only had his glove in front of him it would have landed in it.....

GO RED SOX!!!!!!!

That guy did hit the wall pretty hard I hope he ok also. I sure hated seeing Papi getting robbed of a grand slam.

Well, tonight was Boston's opportunity to demonstrate how slopping fielding will come back to bite you in the ass.

Maybe now John Farrell will consider using Daniel Nava, the eighth leading hitter in the league, over Johnny Gomes?

The look on Craig Breslow's face summed it up for me:

I hear ya that is why we killed them the first night <sighs>

At least they didn't walk all over us like we did them the 1st game.

my personal opinion is different than what I have read ~ I was very disappointed in the field ~ Lackey gave all he could w. no co operation w/ the exception of Pedroia ~ he ROCKS ~ * I curtsey to the pitching coach of the Cardinals ** Tomorrow night will hopefully be a better outcome ~ disappointed fan ~

It's like they are holding auditions to see who will be the Bill Buckner of the 2013 World Series.

The Sox better plug the holes in their defense. And wake up those bats. They are not on an even pitching playing field with the Cardinals. They have to rely on their strengths. It's not the time to let the 2nd worse team at stealing bases pull double steals on you.

The teams are rather evenly matched it's just that their strengths and weaknesses are in different areas of the game. The team who takes the World Series will be the team who finds a way to ramp up their strengths and cover up their weaknesses.

Last night that wasn't the Red Sox.

Lackey did pretty good balancing the pitching game even though arguably he was not the superior pitcher, but their strengths all but disappeared.

I just

Big Papi

WOW last nights game was a good one. I thought we was going to win it after Big Poppie hit the homerun and we was up by one. I think they should have left Lester in for another inning. Oh well we have this weekend to move ahead <crosses fingers>
I do like good games!!!!!!
