An amazing game. Paul Byrd came up big again! He held Boston scoreless for 5 innings and then the Indians offense finally woke up by putting a seven spot on the scoreboard. We had a little scare in the 6th when Boston went back to back to back with solo home runs. Our bullpen settled in after the last home run and that was that!
A funny side note to Boston's 6th inning. After Youkilis hit his solo home run the fan who ended up with the ball threw it back on the field like they do in Wrigley. Then when Ortiz hit his home run the woman who caught the ball was ready to throw it back when the fans around her talked her out of it. A couple innings later Fox showed her selling the ball to a Red Sox fan. They claimed she got $20 for it. Only in America...

byrd rocks. he's just a good solid pitcher.
however; i now really hate manny ramirez. he scores one home run, and he puts his hands up like he just won the game, even though they were down five or six runs. bastard. and every time he is up all he is looking for is that home run. nothing else. i hate ramirez.
also, i don't think i would have sold that ball for twenty. yeah, i'm an indians fan, but still to catch a ball at a playoff game...i think that would be something to hold on to, and talk about.
[shalom...]
I think Manny is in his own little world and is oblivious to the rest of us. And I would have kept the ball for sure!
