The Red Sox showed signs of life tonight and won game 5 of the ALCS to send the series back to Boston for game 6 (and hopefully game 7). The Indians did everything they could to get to Sox pitcher Josh Beckett including having his ex-girlfriend sing the national anthem. They claim they had no idea the two had dated, but seeing as how no one has heard of her before tonight and she was a last minute replacement when Boston announced Beckett would pitch today, I don't buy it. This will also keep our Idyllwild baseball streak alive. We always go over to the pizza parlor in town and watch a playoff game while we're on our October camping trip. If the series had ended tonight we'd be out of luck. I'm just hoping this doesn't turn out like 2003 when the game we saw had Aaron Boone hit a walk off homerun to help the Yankees knock the Sox out of the playoffs.
It ain't over til Manny says it's over.
