Pitcher's stats are regular season.

 

Series headed to St. Louis.

It's funny how close their stats look on paper. I mean, 1/4 run in ERA?

[stocker323]

Suppan's record is a bit skewed because of the run support that he gets.

[mosox]

Pedro has come along way from under the mango tree. This is the game he's waited for since he came to Boston and I have a feeling he will be explosive.

He's got 7 days rest and the weather is warm, the way he likes to pitch.

Like most of the Cards pitchers Suppan throws high 80's and is around the plate, just the type of pitcher Sox hitters like. Trot needs to break out his mini slump.

GO SOX!!!!

I'm expecting an incredible start from Pedro. He's throwing harder than he has in years, and is on extra rest. My prediction, 5 - 2 Sox.

We could lose all 3 games in St. Louis and I'd still feel pretty comfortable coming back to Fenway.

I'm sure that's what the Yankees fans said. Look how that turned out

[yeszir]

Game on. I'm excited.

[yeszir]

And sox are off to a quick lead.

[yagmaster]

Not a good start for Pedro. Bases loaded, one out, come on Petey!

[yeszir]

Crap. He's wild and pitching 88. Great.

[yagmaster]

What a play by Manny and Varitek. Way to protect the lead.

[yeszir]

I'm shocked we got out of that.

[element1151]

That was a great play.

[yagmaster]

He looked a lot better that inning. I'm still nervous though.

[yagmaster]

WOW! Thank you for being retarded St. Louis

[yankeessuck013]

give credit to papi tho

[element1151]

What was Suppan doing, clearly has no idea of how to run the bases, or the pressure just got to him.

He's a pitcher, not used to being in base running situations I guess.

good scoop by Papi, my goddamn power keeps going out so I had to see the replay, I heard Jon Miller going nuts though

Power going out? I thought the hurricanes had stopped.

[element1151]

Pedro got a walk!!!

[yagmaster]

I have been very impressed by the whole team, but two players especially so far this game. Pedro, but for his rocky (but harmless) start, has been dominant. Cabrera has been hitting the top off the ball. It's amazing what we can find from Montreal.

[schillingouttheks]

francona played for montreal in 1982 also...if that counts..

[yeszir]

Pedro has been absolutely amazing since that rocky start. He's just shutting them down.

[schillingouttheks]

5 more outs and counting...please god we go up 3-0 and dont pull a yanks.

[schillingouttheks]

one inning left...

[yeszir]

I can't believe it. The Red Sox are going to win the World Series. THE WORLD SERIES!!!! THE RED SOX WILL WIN IT! OH MY GOD.

[jlcrss9]

3-0 series lead...i smell a sweep.

 

GO SOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
