There were 2 major momentum shifts in the game.
The Sox started the game well, scoring 3, one in each of the first 3 innings, then Cle came on scoring 2, looked they would take control. Their momentum got killed on 1) bad call on Lofton being out at 2nd, and 2) in the 7th on Lofton not being sent home on a hit that bounced off the box in left.
In the 7th and 8th the ceiling fell in on them with the sox pouring it on. Main damage
Dustin 2-run homer in 7th, Dustin 3-run double in 8th, Youk 2-run homer in the 8th.
Games were closer than the scores in games 2 & 7.
Dustin comes up BIGGGG, so does Dice-K, Paps bails out Oki for the six out save. Win the series 4-3. Cleveland was a very worthy opponent. We'll see them again in future playoff series. Welcome Colorado. Will have a few thoughts on the ALCS, and World Series tomorrow. Too jacked to be coherent, now!
Great pitching performance from Curt. Way to sack up. Same for JD Drew, 3 for 5, 5 RBI, 6 Bases
Manny's streak ended ;(, but got another RBI.
Josh pitches extremely well.
The bats start coming up big, with Youk and Dustin joining the party.
Charts from Inside-Edge.
Well we've seen worse in 04.
Never had a winning streak greater than 5 all season, never had a losing streak more than 3 all season.
It's time to win,
Game 2 - Javier Lopez melts down, and Gagne doesn't get it done
Game 3 - the sinker sinks the sox. Westbrook was able to get groundout after groundout.
Will write more tonight when I get back home.

Ortiz and Manny - 10 for 10 OBP.
- David 2-2, (3 Bases), 2 Walks, 1 HBP.
- Manny 2-2 (2 Bases), 3 Walks, 3 RBI
- Great game from Beckett, not as dominant as he was versus the Angels, but was in control
The inside edge has great scouting reports, nice view on Josh and CC's tendencies.
For CC - lot's of sliders to lefties, changeups to righties, likes the outside middle to righties, and outside middle and low
For Josh - fastballs, 2 and 4 seam, likes hit the outside for both righties and lefties
Tony is for the Sox and Mike is for the Indians. Have to say everyone is talking about starting pitching which is probably right, but I look at innings 5/6 for the starters to go out based on the batters patience.
