Hopefully the game doesn't end with Lane on 3rd.
This is the time when Red Sox made their historical comeback last year, against Rivera.
This will be the 4th time in the last 9 years that AL has swept the NL team in the world series. The only way NL can win is to have absolutely...
And looks like my hunch of a 0:1 final score may come true. Still a fantastic season though. I take this kind of agony over just giving up...
The 8th inning is a mirror of what it has been the difference in the series.
I think the frustration a lot of fans have right now has to do with the way the hitters are getting themselves out. If they all battled as Backe...
Backe can go 9 innings today.
Garner predicted the team wouldn't score for another 40 innings the way they were hitting. Maybe self-fulfilling?
What's the record for the most consecutive innings with lead-off man on?
Now the situation is regressing. Can't even them to second base now.
Can't lose this game 0:1.
Good strike out of Konerko. Backe looks good.
Can't they even try to get the runner to third with one out or less?
Yeah, players pressed and had a lot of bad at-bats, but Garner made a lot of managerial mistakes as well. I was reading ESPN Page 2's second...
Look at the positive. 4 hits, including a homer, and only one run, so far. There is still a chance.

Lidge is on fire.
Because he was either the winning pitcher or going out to pitch the 10th. There is no way he will require to bat or pitch-hit for him at that time.
The way Garner is using the relief pitchers in the top of the 9th, this should be the inning, the chance, the game. Can't afford to drag this...
