    The no call on the fan interference was a turning point. I think they made the right decision.

    Koji - that man is money.

    Back to Boston (to close it out).

    Yeah. It's going to be hard rooting for the NL in the World Series with Koji closing out games for the Red Sox.

    That's AL baseball.

    Watch how they foul off pitches to force the pitchers to throw more... I believe that extends AB's far more than any other nuance of the game (stepping out, meetings at the mound, pickoff throws, etc.).

    Prince Fielder is embarrassing. Get in shape you tubo. You're a professional athlete not a beer league softball player.

    Ouch... from what should have been an inning ending DP to giving up a lead changing grand-slam.

    Not sure I'm ready for the Astros to be "good" again... that must have been a killer in Detroit.

    Probably one of the most epic TOOTBLANs* in recent memory.

    *Thrown out on the basepaths like a nincompoop

    I was really hoping for Verlander/Lackey game 7.
