My heart sank when my baseball-loving kid asked when we were going to watch a game again. Martinez just hit Cairo to load the bases. We got along fine without reviewing every close play and I would like to return to that nebulous state of affairs when the world stops burning. Having never actually watched any of the discs, I vaguely remembered stashing them in a box that had somehow made its way from Philly to Boston by way of several Cambridge apartments. When Dave Roberts stole second, she screamed like it was happening in real time. It took 10 pitches for Ortiz to end Game 5 with a bloop single to center off the handle of the bat. Intentional walk to Posada. Francona leaves Martinez in and he gets Hideki Matsui to fly out. By Paul Flannery Mar 24, 2020, 3:07pm EDT Kind of miss those days. Manny gets his walk and trots to first like it’s a game in June against the Orioles. I always loved Manny in these spots because a) he’s a great hitter and b) he’s completely impervious to pressure. The Yankees had a chance to break it open in the eighth, but Mike Timlin gets A-Rod to pop up with a runner on third and one out. Looked like Cairo may have been out at the plate, but it’s real close. Keith Foulke is on to pitch the ninth. I have no idea how either one of these teams turned around and played again the next night, but I’d give anything for another marathon Red Sox-Yankee game right about now. My kid smacks his forehead and says, “Oh, Manny.” He doesn’t even know the half of it. And then, much, much later, Big Papi’s home run. All images are property the copyright holder and are displayed here for informational purposes only. Somehow, OK, now the 14th. Today’s injury is a broken heart. Esteban Loiaza is on to pitch for the Yankees and he’s somehow become Whitey Ford. Pretty sure I’ve seen her at the Fresh Pond Trader Joes. The strike zone, by the way, has been a tad inconsistent. Everyone at Fenway is nervous as hell. Instead, he strikes out. Boston Red Sox beat New York Yankees (5-4). We started with Game 4 of the ALCS against the Yankees because even in a quarantine I wouldn’t bother with the first three games. The knuckleballer’s normal catcher/binky is Doug Mirabelli, but Tito rides with Varitek, who has absolutely no idea how to catch a knuckleball. Everyone is hanging on every pitch and it’s beautiful. For the record, neither my wife nor I have a Boston accent and he doesn’t either. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2004_American_League_Championship_Series Hard to believe, but there really was a point when McCarver was an insightful announcer. Somehow, Wakefield strikes out Sheffield with a nasty knuckler that Varitek misplays into a passed ball. It took nearly six hours and 14 innings, but the Red Sox made it happen. Ah, the 13th. Here comes Papi and he takes Tom Gordon over the Monster and off the Volvo sign. He promptly proved his Masshole bonafides, yelling, “Come on Millah!” when Kevin Millar came up to bat in the ninth against Mariano Rivera. Shame, really. Really appreciate it. I rewatched Game 5 of the 2004 ALCS and it was magical It took nearly six hours and 14 innings, but the Red Sox made it happen. “He did.” Thanks, Tim. I’ll go to my grave saying Prime Nomar was better, but it would really help if Captain Intangibles stopped doing stuff like this.
Replay review. Um, Tito? He fought off nasty cutters and sent one about 420 feet screaming into right that went foul. Visit Baseball-Reference.com for the complete box score, play-by-play, and win probability Super genius. Here’s to you, Keith Foulke. Two outs and here’s Manny. I remember thinking at the time, “This is how it’s going to happen. Cairo singles to left and Manny kicks it like only Manny can, allowing Cairo to get to second. The slicing line drive landing in right. I know this because the broadcast keeps cutting away to the stands and I’ve seen the same woman clasping her hands in prayer between pitches a dozen times. Now Millar, who draws another walk. God bless that dirtbag right fielder. Now Gary Sheffield walks to load the bases. Martinez gets Bernie Williams to pop up, but Jorge Posada reaches on a quirky infield single and Ruben Sierra follows with another hit. Martinez is getting up near 100 pitches. Fortunately, Jeter flies out and so does A-Rod. It’s happening again.We’ve officially reached the moment where Francona becomes a super genius. By the way, there’s no off day because there was a rainout prior to Game 4. Earlier, he told an incredibly random story about Trinidad Hubbard that made absolutely no sense.
No Yankee ever scared me more than Mariano. Sixteen years later, the universe hates Boston and its run of championships, but in 2004, this was all strange and new. Crisis averted. Tim McCarver thinks pitch counts are overrated and now I’m yelling at McCarver to shut the fuck up. “One inning.” Oh Tim, we’re just getting started. I have no idea how you ever got anyone out, but you were nails. ANOTHER passed ball puts runners on second and third. Johnny Damon, who has done absolutely nothing this series, draws a walk. The inside-out swing. I miss the Volvo sign. Thanks, guys. Oh God. It’s hard to tell because there’s no K-Zone or pitch tracking and again, that’s totally fine! Buck had a great call. When McCarver gets what he considers a profound thought in his head, he slows his cadence for dramatic effect. Thankfully, Joe Buck is here to remind us. This is how they’re going to kill us.”Two outs now and Matsui’s at first. Salute to him. This was A-Rod’s chance to be a True Yankee and he blew it.
