Great post Kalapse, but the reason I question Dotel's head is tonight for example. That inside burner he threw for the strikeout was amazing. Then the next pitch was belt high meat for the home run. His first two pitches to the first batter he faced were unhittable. The next four pitches were not even close to the strike zone. Weird. Maybe it is all because of what you said about innings, but I don't understand why some pitches are so nasty.

That's neat how we are hanging in there w/out CQ and Paulie and Crede and Linebrink (those many weeks). We have a lot of wins for a team that has had some injury woes.

Thornton and Bobby are the only ones who are reliable and Thornton still is wild sometimes isn't he?

Some of the Yankee starters have been s*** lately. Hopefully we can somehow win 2 or 3.

I thought you were saying I wasn't a true Sox fan just cause I wanted the matchup. You are right. A win isn't guaranteed. I just think it would be wild nationally to see it all Chicago all the time. Also with the AL superiority ... I think we'd win. A loss would be horrific though.

Great great day. Applause for our starters. Wise's hit truly was incredible. Loved Thome's homer and BA's as well. I don't know what lesson can be learned from Game Two. I guess Oz should assume no lead is safe the next 2 weeks and only pitch Thornton and Bobby in the pen until their arms fall off. And I guess Linebrink as well. Boone should never toe the rubber again this year. Just the sight of him awakens our opponents' bats. Doetl is stealing money from major league baseball. He is so bad at times it baffles. A DH win this time of year is so huge. Congrats Sox on a great day.

Mex, believe me I'm a true Sox fan. The only reason I'd want the Cubs there is I think we'd win the first two in the Cell and beat them. Obviously I don't want them in if we're not there. The reason I'd want them out is to keep them from winning the NL title, but I think we'd spoil the Series for them. If it's that dangerous and there will be murders, I'm against it.

Probably true. I think I'm going to vote for Obama since he's a Sox fan.

Why don't you guys want it? First two games in the Cell. It'd be awesome.

Not that I care about the Flubs ... but wouldn't it be great? Sox-Flubs World Series? Make it happen baseball gods.

Me too. Long drive.

I wish I had some champagne after that game.

He was kiddin about CQ. Even I can tell that

D. Wise for President after tonight. That's all there is to it.

I think Dotel needs the sports psychologist or somebody to teach him how to pitch.

Boy that replay was sweet. Nice job of getting bat on ball, Wise.

I don't think Boone has the stuff to learn anything from anybody. Maybe after 5 more years of minor league seasoning.

If we win, I did not waste a nonproductive nite here at work watching this game!!! I love baseball.

Cmon Thornton, throw strikes. Let's win this thriller.

Nice call. How did that happen? What a crazy sport this is. Can we have an easy ninth??? Please. Go Sox!

OM f***ing god. Life is good again.

This is an unWise decision by Oz.

Cmon BA. Can he have 2 positives in one night? Oops pinch hitter. Me thinks this guy ain't gonna get a hit. Oz ain't on fire tonight.

Well you have to make them pay for that error. You just have to.

That should have been the base hit. Not a good effort by OC.
