That was freakin' ridiculous!! I knew we were screwed in the 9th when the announcers said "Pena has amazingly only hit into 2 double plays all year.." and then BAM!
What, are they holding the controller to remote control baseballs?
Here was the biggest homer statement of the series so far: in the 8th while Boston was at bat- the commentator (i can't remeber which one) said (and I quote):
"If Boston comes back to win this game then we'll head back to the Trop for game 6, but if Boston loses then The Rays are headed to the world series..."
SERIOUSLY!
Well isn't that nice of Boston to consider losing so that the Rays can go to the Series... call it semantics, but that is complete homer-ism... enfuriating!!
The Rays lost a devastating game last night, 8-7. They didn't lose anything else. They did not lose any momentum, they did not lose their confidence, and they did not lose their grip on the Championship. The Red Sox desperate, with a priest, Rabbi and a witchdoctor at their bedside and a funeral director taking measurements, somehow pulled off one of the greatest miracles. Would we want to be down 3 to 2 and going to Tampa, NO THANK YOU. We are in the drivers seat and they have to come to our house where they are only 2 for 11 this year and have to face the best team in baseball with their best pitchers yet (James Shields & Andy Sonnanstine). So give me a break and only tip your hat to them for one great comeback. Now back on track to the World Series. LETS GO RAYS (CharlieRay)
you mean Shields and Garza
