For the record

Jake asked me right before the homer: “Has Aki hit the homer yet?”

I hate that crystal ball.

Write in vote #2 for me

I just loved how RJ reacted on AIM, though I thought he was messing with my head….

He may have the IM transcript of his reaction,

I accidentally clicked out of it mid-AKI

I actually began working on this

When Boston still led 1-0 in the bottom of the eighth, and I frantically had to change it and come up with the MVP poll to reflect the win. Couldn’t be more glad to do it.

Great Performance by E-Jax

Yet another game in the ongoing series of “no way last years team wins this game”.

Just finished watching the game on Tivo.

What a helpless feeling watch Buchholz mow through the order again and again and knowing Okajima/Papelbon were waiting for the call to finish it. Then Aki with the blast.. total disbelief.

BTW, Gabe Gross at the plate = Ben Grieve
