Very important that Beckett somehow get a shut down inning here if he is to make this competitive......1 down first pitch swing (thank you )

Can someone explain to me how you don't walk Youkilis to load the bases, and then play the infield back?

Kotsay has a chance to be a hero here.....even a walk would be huge!!

Not a major victory but now it's about another shut down inning after taking a lead.....

Can't believe Gross is still playing, even after Baldelli hit a home run in the only game he played.

Very weird.

Cousins is squeezing Shields but not so with Beckett.

Weirder.

It's the ALCS couldn't they budget for an extra umpire.

LOL @ stealing with Navarro, even on a hit-and-run.

Either Joe Maddon has suddenly lost his mind or something is up.

Bartlett = Podsednik.

No longer... Just what Shields needs...more time to get further out of sync.

As for Gross, he's already displayed his consistency at the plate ( what is it now 0-14?) and the tremendous outfield acumen he displayed last game (another way off the mark relay throw). And Perez sits on the bench...

Good question. Gross is a terrible outfielder.
