And Paps should be able to go tomorrow.

Even if we have a ten run lead in the 9th I want him in there purely for celebratory purposes.

WATER!!!!



Goodbye, Nation. I need sleep.

[patinorange]

Jacoby!

Mike!

Dice K!

Dustin!

Julio!

Dirty Water, Dirty World Series water.

The first 6 game hitting streak of the year!

One more, one more, one more!

Andrew...6 in a row!

One more, then opening day.

[Aldogg]

Sweet Dirty Water. Got to watch the last inning from home. Oh man, 3-0, one more win!

[budcrew08]

Dirty watah!

Jacoby Ellsbury the player of the game!

[trotsplits]

Even though Oki gave up that 3-run jack that sent us all into hysterics, the remainder of that inning felt like the ballgame. Heroics is the darkness.

[chester]

You're kidding, right?

Seriously.

That was the longest WS game. Seriously? 4:19 oh so close.

[boggartlaura]

Given that he has no business (nor much experience) in RF, I'm willing to cut him a little slack. Hmm?

Of course, especially up 10-5. Doesn't change the fact it wasn't a great play.

[ajank002]

First 6 game winning streak of the season. And a nice time for it too.

hell yeah

[Coach W]

Jacoby must think this is beyond cool.

Ellllllllllsbury! POTG. Awesome. Can he be ROY next year? Anyone know the eligibility rules there? Will he be competing with Buchholz?

[ypioca]

Papelbon drops the F bomb on national TV. Haha!

How was that the longest WS game ever?

From 10:30 to 2:55... I felt it.

[P'tucket, rhymes with...]

I'll bet Warren Zevon is spinning in his grave right now with Fox using "Excitable Boy" like that.

[patman]

Six game win-streak! Hot shit!

Longest streak of the season! Saving their best for last.

[asection8]

Thanks, Red Sox Hitting.

Thanks, Shari.

[PragueSox]

Closer than I would have hoped, but I'll take it. One more to go. See you tomorrow, and enjoy your extra hour of sleep!

[NomarRS05]

I'm enjoying this a lot. Not gonna lie.

[boggartlaura]

No. We came back in the 2004 ACLS from an 0-3 deficit, so I was wondering if anyone did in the WS.


WATER!!!

One of the amazing thing about 2004 was that nobody had ever come back from a 3-0 defecit in baseball in any series.

[PragueSox]

Ellllllllllsbury! POTG. Awesome. Can he be ROY next year? Anyone know the eligibility rules there? Will he be competing with Buchholz?

Yes, he can be ROY. Not enough at bats.

[Nixon For President]

Yes, he can be ROY. Not enough at bats.

Yeah, it's a question of the number of at-bats, not how much tail he's getting.

[Barbara]

OK buckaroos. Catch you all tomorrow.

I believe in the Boston Red Sox.

[PragueSox]

One of the amazing thing about 2004 was that nobody had ever come back from a 3-0 defecit in baseball in any series.

Or in any other US pro sports series save for two hockey series in the '70s or '80s.

[chester]

What a game. Go up big, then let them back in it, then we make a statement (with the home grown rookies by the way), that is what the best teams do. Great outing from DiceK and I don't know how to spell Okajima battling back after letting up the HR was ballsy. Great win.

Lovin that Dirty Watah

[njingles3]

As good as this feels, it's going to feel a whole lot better tomorrow at about this time.

[Al Zarilla]

Great game. Just want to say, about Paps, his setup, windup and delivery are perfect. No wasted side motion, nothing. Just smooth as silk and POW! One reason, I believe, that he gets that great stuff up there with such great command and control, or whatever it's called nowadays.

[Hee-Seop's Fable]

Unbelievable dirty water!

Never won six in a row ALL year, and here we are with 6 in a row in the postseason against the best teams in baseball. Unbelievable. The pro, Bill Mueller would be proud of how they put the Rockies away tonight.

[LiveAndDieWithTheSox]

Closer than I would have hoped, but I'll take it. One more to go. See you tomorrow, and enjoy your extra hour of sleep!

The switch from Daylight Saving Time is next week for us, so don't be late tomorrow!

Beckett doing the Papeljig is so close I can feel it.. one more game fellas. Dirty water.

[Andrew]

Go Poppelban!

[redsoxfan1776]

Go Poppelban!

Andrew! Where have you been? You have good I am unoriginal and unfunny. Please put me out of my misery!

[Andrew]

Ellllllllllsbury! POTG. Awesome. Can he be ROY next year? Anyone know the eligibility rules there? Will he be competing with Buchholz?

Ellsbury will be considered a rookie for 2008 and will be eligible for any rookie awards.

[FoulketoMinky]

WATAH!

I have to give props to the fat bastard in the white hat behind the plate. He didn't stop waving that stupid fucking towel all night.

[LESDL]

WOW. Just wow. Rookie sensations. Unbelievable.

The WATER is so dirty it's untouchable.

What a game!

Wow.

Wow!

[Andrew]

Andrew! Where have you been? You have good I am unoriginal and unfunny. Please put me out of my misery!

I'm the biggest Sox fan all the people around here know. I'm a popular guy in October! hehe

I check in the thread when I can, though!

[TheAnswerIs42]

Rookie magic, baby. The Sox have a stellar past, a tremendous present, and a darn good future.

Let's end this tomorrow.

[Hee-Seop's Fable]

Go Poppelban!

Yup, McCarver's game prep is something to behold. What a surprise he blew the color commentary showing surprise Lopez stayed in to face a righty, when he must be a lefty specialist...

[gtg807y]

Ellsbury will be considered a rookie for 2008 and will be eligible for any rookie awards.

Could be like Ken Dryden with the Canadiens in the early 1970s, came on too late in the season to qualify as a full rookie year, won the Conn Smythe Trophy in the playoffs, and won the Calder Trophy the next season, his "rookie" year.

Sorry for comparing a young Boston star to a Montreal player, but there it is.

[DeronJohnson'sTriple]

Unbelievable dirty water!

This is what amazes me. They are absolutely playing their best baseball of the whole season right when it counts. I love it.

[NomarRS05]

ESPNews has some solid post-game coverage going for those of you junkies out there.

[budcrew08]

Question for anyone left on the thread:

Please don't smash me for asking, but if the Sox win tomorrow and clinch, when would a victory parade be? my girlfriend and I have off tuesday, and I'm wondering if it would be that quick.

[LiveAndDieWithTheSox]

I've got the Fox Sports stream going. I'll have to check ESPNews streaming. Thanks.

Last one was three days after. I don't remember the one before that, something about being 86 years ago...

[NomarRS05]

haha tito's PC: "I really don't want the rockies to win. can we pass the mic to someone else please?"

Thanks. I may have to call in "dead" to work to see this one...

[NomarRS05]

hell yeah Jnai.

[gtg807y]

Yeah, I think that was a Saturday also. They might wait a bit so as to not royally f--k up a Boston work day.

Oh, and no one's won a World Series yet. That detail remains.

[LiveAndDieWithTheSox]

haha tito's PC: "I really don't want the rockies to win. can we pass the mic to someone else please?"

Yeah, that was an idiotic question "what advice do you have for the rockies players now being down 0-3"
