Baseball
I find it interesting that the Yanks have to win 4 out of their last 6 games to finish ahead of the Red Sox.
The Giants will pala their last 3 games at the Dodgers and can beat them if they win. The last game is on Sunday, Oct. 3rd. Way back when Larry was but a wee tyke, the Giants and Dodgers played another game. The date was Oct. 3, 1954. Bobby Thompson hit the "Shot Heard 'Round The World", and the Giants won the pennant.

The Yanks clinched their division last night . Now it's on to the playoffs. The Red Sox can still win the American League pennant, Whou. But, watch out for ghosts and other non-corporeal things in Yankee Stadium; or is this also too metaphysical for SVXers? GO YANKS !!

Bobby Thomson is actually a friend of my family- it amazes me that he has managed to parlay a 50+ year career off that one hit. I'm just glad I'm not Ralph Branca, who has also made a 50+ year career out of that one pitch!! The Giants win the pennant! The Giants win the pennant! The Giants win the pennant!

Baseball Playoffs
The Yankees start off tonight against the Red Sox as usual.
I'm rooting for the Yanks (just in case anyone here didn't know). I'm picking the Yankees in 7 games, but it will be tough. It all depends on the quality of the Red Sox & Yankees middle relief pitchers. Also, I don't see either the Yanks or Sox beating the St. Louis Cardinals in the World Series. GO YANKS !!!

The Sox in 4, Larry. Hey I can dream can't I? I have a feeling the whole team in on the wagon this year and its going to be a battle to the death. Hopefully, a true end of the Yank brouhaha...But I fear my fair city will be in flames if it happens...It did when the Pats won the bowl, I can only imagine if the Sox clinch the series! Ahhh....Only 1 1/2 hours till the Yanks slow death....MWAHAHAHAHA

Who's Your Daddy?
I actually felt sorry for Curt Schilling. His ankle must really be bothering him.
Whoru, If the Sox won the series, the Boston fans would not know how to take it. They need the angst and grief of losing to feed on. Otherwise, the Sox and their fans would become just another mediocre baseball team like the Mets, who were once 'lovable loosers'. Scoobie, How could you? I think I'll send an e-mail to the NY Post about you; but I could be persuaded not to, for certain SVX parts. PS: Tonight's game is pivotal. Questions: Will both candidates appologize to the American public for scheduling their so called debate during the baseball playoffs? Will executives at Fox be stoned for scheduling both the AL & NL playoff games at the same time tonight?

I agree. This town would lose all momentum and the Sox just might, although I doubt it, turn into the *shiver* Mets. Yea, Schilling must have been hurting, that was a disaster. Although I the glint forme was breaking the perfect game. If we can get a head of steam built up, we'll do ok. It's only game one...

Two games down, two more wins to get to the Cardinals. All the engineers here at work that are Red Sox fans ( 6 total), are concocting ideas and designs for an ankle brace for Schilling's right foot. I'm having some fun with them. I wish Rube Goldberg was still alive and working here.
Pedro proved that he is now beatable on a semi-regular basis. He is not the great pitcher that he was 3-5 years ago. If someone had told me that Lieber would have a shutout going against the Sox for 6 innings, I would have said that they were nuts. I guess that's why they play the games. Now, if Kevin Brown can pitch as well as Mussina & Lieber on Friday night in Boston, then this series is over. Maybe the Yankee pitching rotation is finally living up to Joe Torre's expectations. I sure hope so.

ALCS - 3rd Game
For me, tonight’s game in Fenway Park is the pivotal game. The Yankees must be able to get timely hits and score a lot of runs off of Bronson Arroyo, the Boston Red Sox pitcher. The Yankee pitcher, Kevin Brown, must pitch as good a game as Mike Mussina and Jon Lieber. The key to this series, so far, has been keeping Boston center fielder and leadoff hitter, Johnny Damon off the bases. He is the spark plug that ignites the Red Sox offensive fire power. So far, the Yankee pitchers have done a great job.
I hope Kevin Brown can do the same tonight. If the Yankees win tonight, they can use both ‘El Duke’ and Vasquez to pitch in Saturday’s game. If they lose Saturday, they can start their rotation over by starting Mike Mussina again on Sunday. I think that the Red Sox pitching rotation is in complete disarray since Schilling is hurt. As much as I’d like the Yankees to sweep this series in 4 games, I think that the Yanks will win it in 5 on Sunday. In the NLCS, I think that the Cardinals are just too powerful a team for the Astros to handle. Clemens might win his game, but I can only see the Astros wining one game.
