Jimbo,
it's over tonight. The Rays have a 2 game lead with 2 games left, but because BOTH teams qualify for the playoffs there is no playoff game to determine the division champ (see Yankees-Red Sox 2005).

Gotcha, well at least that means the TIGERS have NOTHING to play for the rest of the weekend, till MONDAY when they probably play Chi Wh Sox
I would love to see the Tigers win and knock the White Sox out ....
Jimbo
I really think that game is gonna happen Monday, whether the White Sox are up by a half game or behind by a half game.
Jimbo,
now that I think of it, didn't the same scenario happen with your Tigers and the Twins in '06?
Could be, I have a hard time keeping one year seperate from another, I'll say yes, because your memory is better than mine.
Jimbo
That's a good question - but with that bullpen, I'd say leave him in there to try to guarantee the victory and let the chips fall as they may on Sunday... with John Maine! j/k!
Thank goodness my first game at the Coliseum on Wednesday, albeit a preseason game. HOCKEY IS BACK!
Time for a different set of heartbreaks!
You better be ready to dish out some insults this hockey season.
Sandra absolutely despises the Islanders, and she'll probably tee off on you.
Saying Sandra despises the Islanders, is like saying I despise Me-Me................in other words, despise isn't a strong enough word!
Red Sox scored a run- it's now 19-6.
You said they needed to score a field gaol.
Let me put it to you this way- have you ever heard of the Canadian Football League and, more specifically, the rouge?

Bill, your still watching this game? Man, what an odd game? Very creepy and quiet. When was the last time Yankees/RedSox game had this type of feel to it?
Now for the weather report from hell.
Temperature- 3 below zero.
And, in the sky, I believe I saw a pig with wings.
:haha:haha It's unbelievable......surreal! THAT final score puts the capper on a very strange evening.
19-8! 19-8! 19-8!
You all know what happened the last time the Yankees beat the Red Sox, 19-8 at Fenway, right?
