Well Here We Are Again . . .

Hello, fellow Shedians! After a great showing last night, the Shed is back in a familiar place! It's Game 7 of the ALCS! The past four times the Red Sox have made it to this level, it's gone 7 games! Terry Francona's Red Sox have been 9-1 in elimination games after last night. Like I said Wednesday night, the Red Sox have the Rays just where they want them! If you'll recall, the announcers were saying in games 3 & 4 how good the Ray's manager is at knowing the personalities of his players and how to get the most out of all of them. But, it looks like their youth and inexperience is what he's having a problem overcoming. I don't want to come out and make any predictions, but, I think it's fair to say I'm feeling very good about the Sox chances tonight! I could sense the beginning of the end after Pedroia drove in the first run in Game 5. Big Papi came up, and you could see he had the old smirk on his face and the pitcher and Ray's manager BOTH had that "Uh-oh!" look in their eyes. That's when the psychological battle began! Go Sox! Best of Luck tonight!
