October 3rd vs. Anaheim: ALDS Game 1

[Gom]

What a nasty pitch by Beckett. Unbelievable performance by the kid. Wow.

[a700hitter]

Dominating performance by Beckett tonight. This is the type of young stud for whom you trade your top prospect... and Lowell was a helluva throwin.

[MANNYHOF24]

Papelbon in the 9th, no question about. Let's not screw around and do something like putting in Gange.

[Gom]

Didnt you hear? Gom doesnt consider Beckett as a dominant ace

 

Meanwhile Beckett is f***ing cruising. He's good for 8. Who knows, if he has a quick 1-2-3, send him out for the complete game!

Nah, not dominant. Not at all. Boy, has he made me eat my words tonight. I tip my cap to the kid. Amazing.

 

Why would you take him out? Just let him go the distance. The way he's pitching, he can pitch 30 innings.

[schillingouttheks]

Papelbon in to nail the coffin down, please. Let's not play around with them. It's also completely unnecessary to make Beckett pitch the ninth.

[riverside sluggers]

The ace walks off the mound with one inning left to secure the victory! He has been a blast to watch pitch for us this season

[Rodney Harrison]

Going back to Game 2 of the 2005 ALCS, that makes five consecutive dominant playoff pitching performances against the Halos.

 

Pure domination.

Its all about transition really. The biggest change for him was his maturity, keeping himself cool unlike his very very fiery self in 2006. To think hes still just 27 years old

If he stays like he is, imagine the years or excellence we're gonna have with him in the Rotation.

 

Please tell me that wasn't Gagne I saw in the bullpen...

[MANNYHOF24]

3 more outs for a 1-0 lead. They better bring in Papelbon, we can not screw around with Gange, that would be horrible.

[soxfan17881]

Ellsbury in for Manny.

[See Red]

Beckett back out.

[MANNYHOF24]

[MANNYHOF24]

One more out left for a complete game shutout!!!!!

[a700hitter]

I am surprised that he is out there for the 9th. Nice move putting Ellsbury in for Defense. Nice catch by the kid.

[See Red]

Shaping up to be a quick ninth... one more out!

[MANNYHOF24]

Damn.

[a700hitter]

Base hit by Vlad. Give beckett one more batter.

[zackredsox]

RED SOX WIN 4-0!!

 

Beckett 8k's 4 hits
