Red Sox @ Yankees Final Game Wakefield/Joba

Players have to perform though too, so you can't put it all on Francona. Only move I questioned yesterday was pinch hitting Varitek for Lugo. How bad must Lugo feel when Francona has more confidence in a guy who is 13 for his last 112. I'd rather see Bartolo Colon pinch hit.

Note to Manny: Watch Gardner's at bat. Good things can happen when you take the bat off of your shoulder.

Congrats to the Yankees for not folding yesterday. Tough for me to watch, but got to give credit where credit is due.

Hoping some Fenway home cookin' will finally get the Sox playing, well, decent.

What a game!!  Brett Gardner in the 11th.....whoed a thunk it, haha.  Great plays by Mike Lowell, who should be an allstar instead of Tek.  Apparently Tek was voted by the players.  And is Dionner Navaro having that good a season that hes an AS? I woulda taken Crawford or Longoria instead.

Do you think Manny was sending a message by not takin the bat off his shoulder yesterday???? Naww Manny wouldnt be that selfish.....would he?  Im sure his atbat will be talked about on ESPN all day.
