SOX WIN! THE RED SOX WIN!

The Red Sox bats awoke at the eleventh hour and touched up Pettitte & the Yankees' "I can't get no relief" bullpen. Amazing thing to witness (on a screen, this time, but a big 'un): the Red Sox winning the biggest game since the Bill B***ner game, October 25th, 1986, two weeks after my fourth birthday.

The Infallible Cowboy Up Hat is now 11 for 11 in predicting wins. I'll be wearing it tomorrow, for one of the biggest games in Red Sox history - up there with the Buckner game, Game Six, the 1978 one-game playoff, and the early World Series'.

COWBOY UP!
