We all saw it coming, didn't we?
Melky fires home to Georgie, nabs Papi by three strides. Oh, sure: the Yankees will win.
Posada doubles, Matsui triples him home. Giambi walked. 2-1 Red Sox, nobody out. Bingo: a big inning. Then, almost all at once, Cano strikes out, Melky hits into an inning-ending double play. Of course: missed opportunities. The Yanks are toast.
Bases loaded, Dice K gone. Jeter v. Timlin. Got 'em.
Jeter flails in the dirt. Game over, right?
Except, except . . .
Well, not much. In the eighth, 7-2 Red Sox, back-to-back homers from Giambi and Cano. 7-4, and why weren't these guys doing this with men. So in comes Papelbon . . .
Well, this was an interesting night. Oky torched, Papelbon torched, Gagne not even trusted. Dice K no longer the fair-haired boy.
October brims with possibilities.
