As Steve Robert the Llama Butcher says,

I’m not sure how much more of this I can stand.....

Yankee Death Star 3, Fenway Rebel Alliance 3

I did stay up for the entire game last night, although there was some mild dozing around the 6th-7th innings, I think. I woke up when Bellhorn’s double-turned-homerun got the crowd going. At that point I was wide awake and riveted for the rest of the game.

The umps get mega-kudos for making two call corrections. If only they had been that honest when the Jeffrey Maier incident cost the Orioles a World Series berth in the mid-90s. (Yes, I’m still bitter. See the entry for October 9 at the link for the story.)

Tonight, I shall be viewing LOST “live” but will switch to the game immediately upon that show’s conclusion and will be parked on my sofa and freaking out my dog with my exuberant cheering, clapping, and yelling at the TV for the duration of Game 7.
