Matsuzaka - Diced
I don't think an 11-2 game has ever felt so close. Sheer heart attack. Dice-K started out looking good but I was getting afraid of that dreaded 4 2/3 inning hump. I'll probably question Tito going to Okajima for the 8th (2+ innings?), but Francona gets the benefit of the doubt. And once again, Kenny Lofton is left grasping at straws. To be on the 2002 Giants, 2003 Cubs, 2004 Yankees, and the 2007 Indians is a pretty sad set of choking teams.
Although I wouldn't say the Indians choked. They gave as good as they got, and it was close all the way. But the Sox had the better set-up men, and we had the superb rookies... All the little kids in the crimson sox go: Cleveland, Rox.

Great to see some other Red Sox fans here in Singapore! Couldn't agree with you more about an 11-2 game feeling so close. It felt that way all this morning until the final out. Do you know where Sox fans congregate in Singapore to watch the games? Just post your response here in the comment section and I will come back and check.
GO SOX!!!!!
