Rays pull within 2. Sox have a huge advantage schedule-wise: 7 against Baltimore and only 3 against the Yanks, Rays have 7 against the Yanks and 3 against Toronto. Should be interesting.

I'm a Yankees fan and I want the them to clinch the division, on the other hand I want the Rays to continue winning and overtake the Red Sox for the wild card. Gonna be a fun final 10 games to the season.

I feel like the O's are screwing everything up. If they didn't take 2 from the rays recently then the rays would have overtaken the Red Sox for the wild card.

maybe its the Rays screwing everything up.. afterall, had TB not recently taken 6 of 7 from Boston, the Sox would be up by a gazillion games.

If I werent a Sox fan this would be comical.... but since I am, it aint... But I hope ya'll are enjoying it.

if only april and september didnt count.... if only... from may thru august... no one.... NO ONE was in Boston's class...

The offense has lived upto the expectations... but when you play basically 4 weeks with only one season starting rotation guy pitching.... what can one expect.....

Best hope is Bedard pitches like he can and Lester and Beckett are on in the playoffs.... I dont expect Boston to use a 4th guy.... they will throw guys on short rest if they have to.

as they say, the baseball season is marathon, not a sprint. There was a good 2-3 weeks where Boston did in fact look almost unbeatable.

2-3 weeks? Are you serious???

From April 16 thru August Boston went 83-43. In that same time frame New York went 72-46 and Philadelphia went 77-42.... hardly call that a 2-3 week period.

I'm talking about one stretch in particular where the Red Sox literally scored 10+ runs consistently.

And now the Angels have pulled within 4 games of the wildcard.

Rays tied up with the Yanks in the 8th of the first of a double header tonight.

I got a strange feeling this game has the makings of a 15-inning or longer marathon....

I have the feeling that the Rays will pick up 1.5 games on Boston today.

Even though I'm a Yankees fan, I would certainly not mind if that happened today. The Yanks are currently up 6 games on the Sox so I'm pretty confident they have the division wrapped up.

Yes, they do. And if the Yankees could bring themselves to give up back to back games to the Rays....god...I would make another donation to CS in UNH's name.

This has to be the first time ever I actually find myself not wanting the yankees to win.

4-2 Yankees.

And that might be the end of game one. Yanks picked up 2 runs just now.

Yanks just clinched a playoff berth.
