Stop complaining about the world being anti-yankees... you did this to yourself.

All of you arguing against Ortiz obviously didn't read the article, the author made valid points, and proved some of the points your making for arod to be meaningless. Like I said, this article didn't come from a boston-based website, in fact, quite the opposite, read the article and then make comments.

http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/4926540 "In fact, I've been doing some informal polling of Yankee fans, asking them who they'd most like to have up in a clutch situation. Most of them say Gary Sheffield, who is the guy I'd least like to see as an opposing pitcher. Some say Derek Jeter. Others say Hideki Matsui. I've yet to hear a Yankee fan say that, with the game on the line, the player they'd most like to have at the plate is Alex Rodriguez. How can that guy be the most valuable player in the league?" "Now ask any Red Sox fan what player they'd most like to see striding to the plate with the outcome in doubt. In the seventh inning and beyond with a chance to tie or put the Red Sox ahead, Ortiz hit .396 with a 1.023 slugging percentage. Time and time again, he delivered victories for Boston when all seemed lost. He crushed a game-winning three-run, walk-off home run to dead center off B.J. Ryan, the Orioles' closer who is brutal on lefties. He taught Angels fireballer Scot Shields that he has plugged the one supposed hole in his swing by destroying a fastball up and in for another walk-off job. Twice in the last two weeks, he delivered game-tying home runs and game-winning hits in the same game." "Day in, day out, Big Papi has meant more to the Red Sox than A-Rod has to the Yankees. If every baseball writer who has a vote for MVP had watched every Red Sox game and every Yankees game, the voting wouldn't be all that close." "Unfortunately, when it comes to MVP voting, it doesn't seem to matter what a player does with his glove, only that he wears one during games." "It's odd that so many baseball writers don't think a DH deserves to be MVP, yet they otherwise think so little of defense that they gave the 1996 award to a below-average outfielder when a certain shortstop was hitting .358 with 382 total bases. If the writers want to give A-Rod an MVP trophy this year, they should revoke the 1996 award they gave to Juan Gonzalez and give it to Rodriguez, who rightfully deserved it." ----------------- Why can't Yankee fans see this? This is also coming from Foxsports which is notoriously anti-red sox.

just win baby

Hey, I know Ortiz had the big hits tonight, but I wanna give a shoutout to Jon Papelbon who made it possible for those runs to mean something. I feel more confident with him than any other member of our bullpen. Hopefully he helps us out in the Yankee series this weekend and propels us towards the post-season.

Wow, this momentum is huge going into the series against the Yanks... maybe its good it happened this way!

Mavpapii!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3-2... dangerous pitch

ortiz being trigger happy

Papi TIME!!!

holy crap... red sox playing with HEART?
