Congrats to the Rays

Well, it's the top of the 7th. 2 men are on base as the Sox are down 5-0, and Papelbon is in the game. Looks like the inevitable is upon us. You have to give them all the credit in the world. The Rays can pitch, can hit, can run. They've done everything, while the stifled the Red Sox in every possible way.

Kazmir was our only hope, but Maddon had faith in him.

I'm sure the Fox executives are crying in their beer at this moment. Their dream match up of the Red Sox and Dodgers have been flushed down the toilet. No Mannywood triumphantly returning to Fenway Park.

The better team won. The only thing in doubt, is who is the ALCS MVP. Is it BJ Upton? Is it Evan Longoria? Can't go wrong with either one. However, I think Fox's Ken Rosenthal is already preparing a column, just in case it is not Upton. Actually, he just doubled in 2 more runs. That should seal it...the MVP I mean.

Go Sox! Next year though. I'm going to hit the hay.
