6 hours ago6 hr I’m a 62-year old man. I have two grown sons and another in HS. I’m incredibly happily married. I enjoy my job and who I work with yet this win brought tears to my eyes. I’m a softie and a sucker for my teams especially when they’re so much fun!Edit…only one of the sons is a Sox fan. I claim the other two anyway. Edited 6 hours ago6 hr by JTB
6 hours ago6 hr I feel like Sox have been living on hard mode all year with pitching that these dudes don’t bat an eye.And it continues to be bewildering how good our offense is.
6 hours ago6 hr I actually think the Sox bullpen being used like this all year benefits us (assuming they're not all fatigued to hell). You saw Mattingly trying to use Duran for 2 innings and it totally backfired on him. Because he was a 1 inning pitcher all year. Our guys being used to these situations is a big advantage. We've basically been using our relievers like it's the playoffs all year, so this is nothing new to them.

Was sitting there while Grant was pitching and I was like holy s%*#, I’m shaking and feel really anxious. That’s probably not a good thing considering it’s only WC game 1 in what is hopefully a long playoff run. Blum nailed it…we looked like the more poised and experienced team.
6 hours ago6 hr Walking on air. So many things went right tonight, and this team looked like a different playoff team than we’ve ever seen (outside of 05). Usually the Sox get overmatched early and often, this time they stepped on the jugular and never took their foot off of it.One of the most satisfying things was Colson being hit by a pitch and then teeing off in the next AB. Here’s to a clean slate after game 162!
