I Ortiz.

Sox are within one run (although it should be tied...Cairo was tagged out at home when Jeter tripled.)

On a side note, I've been awake since the LAST game. 36 hours straight.

TIED! With only one out in the bottom of the 8th!

Another blown save for Mariano Rivera against the Red Sox.

Is there a reason Arroyo is out there? Couldn't Wakefield go? Or he is pitching 2 days from now if they have to?

They don't want to take real big chances with Wake. He's a great starter, but he gives up big hits when he comes out in situations like this.

A-Rod strikes out...there's another reason...

He only pitched three innings or so that game. Wakefield's had a lot more.

...and given the fact that he blanked both A-Rod and now Sheffield, I'll take Arroyo in this situation.

Next up: BIG PAPI !

Oh, and Damon sucks ass as well. He's done crap. Maybe a benching would be good. Get Roberts in as starting CF.

Ugh... that's why you don't try to be aggressive, especially in late innings. Even though Ortiz was actually in there (bad call).

Varitek's bat is important and all, but Mirabelli should always be in when Wakefield is on the mound.

With the exception of a two-hour nap Sunday from 2-4, I have been awake since 8 yesterday morning. I can't go to sleep yet. This is getting as physicially draining as it is mentally and emotionally.

He's always been great against the Yanks. The question is how long can he go? Loiza has been great for NY as well.

And Astros vs. Houston is almost over...and it started 3 hours later.

Having played 27 innings in the past two games, the Red Sox are heading to New York to make history

Having been up 39 hours, I am heading to bed to make my 10:00 class

Unbelievable game. It looks like the Red Sox have at least made it respectable. I'm pulling for them but they still have to be a huge longshot to win this series.

On a sidenote, I think the Yankees have been overusing Mariano Rivera. He should be coming in the 9th to close it out. That's what closers are supposed to do. I think they are giving the Red Sox too many at bats against him. Especially since it's becoming clearer that he's not super-unstoppable against the Red Sox.

Schilling pitches tomorrow. If he does as well as reports indicate he should, I would expect a Game 7.

I just don't know who will pitch it

Why? Your best reliever is more valuable when the game is tied or within 1 run in the late innings with the big boys coming up. What's the point in having an inferior reliver out there which makes your closer irrelevent? The Astros found that out the hard way in Game 2.

I expected last night's loss-this night's loss was simply obnoxious. Do Yankee hitters take the day off after the 9th Inning? They had 5 innings to do something, anything....

I hope Steinbrenner screams at them all night, cause lets just say, Sox's fans think they are mean towards the Yankees-but they are little girle men when it comes to meaness and the Bleacher Creatures at Yankee Stadium.

Every inning that the Yankee bats failed was just one more inning for Boston to win it at.
