4 down, 29 more to go

Brooke Burke, from Wild On! E fame

The Sox somehow found a way to win last night, getting a clutch game tying 2 run homer from David "dropped to 7th in the order" Ortiz and multiple clutch hits in a 6 run 9th inning (especially a huge 2-out hit from Victor Martinez who we should sign to an extension IMMEDIATELY). This was a huge win for us because:
  1. it was against Texas who is fighting us in the Wild Card race
  2. it was on the road and we suck on the road
  3. we need to win every game Beckett and Lester pitch in order to get to the playoffs
Anyone see Clay Buchholz attempt to run the bases? That was the sorriest attempt at baserunning I've ever seen. A guy in a wheelchair had a better chance to score. Well anyway, that's 4 out of 5 for the Sox since I posted the playoff challenge. Let's see if we can keep up the pace.
