ck. Momentum seemed to have switched in favor of Beantown. On Saturday night, Josh Beckett led the Red Sox to a win to even the series. It set up a match of young flamethrowers, Garza vs Jon Lester. Both pitchers threw well, but in the year of the Wonderdogs, is it any surprise that for seven innings, Garza, the former Fresno State Bulldog, would be almost perfect as the Rays took a 3-1 decision and earned a trip to the World Series.

For the last few day the Red Sox looked like a mirror image of the Dodgers. Dying and quickly being pushed out of post season play. A finally, a kid from Woodland, Ca battles his way to a two out RBI single and the Red Sox wake up. Ortiz temporarly breaks out of his slump at the right moment and breathes life back into Red Sox nation. JD Drew has found a home in Boston and calmly belted one over the right field fence to get the Sox back to within one run. Drew looked very comfortable at the plate while working Howell to a 3-1 count. You knew he was going to hit the ball hard somewhere. And he did and Boston will go back to Tampa.
