i guess the rain is coming

get some runs or four

this is coming down to the last game. hate to say it. don't like to believe it. but can't avoid it.

we've all seen instances of guys not coming through. that's not what we saw in the top of the second. that was just hitting in bad luck

tribe 0-0 top 3 Yankees Orioles 0-0 bottom 2

should be 4-0. just got to keep battling

why not try more than one bunt? cmon, ozzie

not the old Pods, but I'll take it.

can Pods finally give us another steal?

let's remember one other thing. two teams with worse records than the Sox -- the angels and Braves -- have already clinched their division titles. cleveland is the reason we ain't in yet. But let's win a couple games and cut all the B.S.

basically, isn't it also true that by winning one game we clinch a tie for the wild card. It ain't much, but it's more than we got right now.

might as well play new york. we'd get prime time TV coverage. Nobody would pick the Sox to win. and it would be a series to remember. I just hope we could keep the damn Yankees fans out of US Cell

three wins indeed clinches wildcard. That would take some pressure off the boys as they head into Cleveland. THIS TIME the Sox could play relaxed -- and the freakin heat would be on The Tribe.

Buddy Bell used to work in the Sox farm system. I wonder if he's pissed he didn't get the job when they hired Manuel or Ozzie and is rolling over. This is flat out ridiculous

Blake up with one out. Bellaird on third, Broussard on second.

sac bunt by Boone.

broussard singles. first and second no outs. Cleveland needs to be drug tested

Somebody confirm this is correct: Yankees and Red Sox have each lost 64. They play three games to finish the season. That means that one of the two will finish with a minimum of 66 losses. If we win four of the last eight, we would be 97-65. Therefore, unless I'm missing something, four more wins by us secures the wildcard? Right? Sure, I'd rather stand up to Cleveland and win the division. But one step at a time is fine with me.

If this death march continues, it could be the end of the franchise. sox fans will never get over this -- unless this team wins a world series. And looking at the great young talent Cleveland has -- with lots of pitching in the minors -- we have little to no chance in the division next season. The next 10 days are pretty damn important for this franchise

time to plant your feet and make a freaking stand. Right now.

is there any reason we haven't learned not to throw Jacque Jones low fastballs?

face it, fellas. we're booked at the hearbreak hotel -- and we're going to be here for quite a while

Rowand has misjudged more balls this week than he has in two seasons. start to wonder what the hell is going on

this feels like that game in August. the only good news is Adkins ain't around to pitch the 16th this time
