K-Rod

K-Rod will blow this game tonight. 11:36 p.m. Bottom 10th 1 out

It's now 11:45. Ortiz walked and Youkilis singled. Two on, 1 out. Kiss 62 goodbye K-Rod.

Biiiiig out. 11:48. K. Two Out.

3-2 2 out.....walk

Bases loaded...regardless of the end result K-Rod is no Paplebon or Mariano

11:54 2-1 count bases loaded...hmmmmm

11:55....heading to the 11th. A 19 minute bottom of the 10th. Let's see how this ends.

11:59: Paplebon starts the top of the 11th. Let's see who the real closer is

12:01: 1 out. K for Paplebon. K-rod sucks

12:08: Two on. Two out. Bear down

12:11: Second Paplebon K of the inning. Inning over. 12 minutes after it started as opposed to K-Rod's 20 minute plus mess in the 10th. Game over in bottom of the 11th? I hope so.

12:14: Bottom 11 and Jered Weaver, not K-Rod is in. I guess he is not good for two. But no, I'd definetely pay him $75 over 5...There is just no way the Angels win this game. Is there?

12:16: 1 on. 1 out.

12:22: It looks like we are in for a looong night. We head to the top of the 12th. If the Angels are going to win they are going to probably need a home run. They havent gotten a big clutch hit in hours, but they do have hits. 13 hits but only 4 runs. They need to punch one over the green monster and come back tomorrow for more.

12:27: Paplebon is out. Who has the deeper pen?

12:32: What do I know. Single-Sac bunt-Bloop=1 run lead for the Angels. Just hope I don't root for your team because I have the baseball kiss of death.

12:37: We head to the bottom of the 12th with the Angels up 5-4 and 3 outs away from erasing their Cub-like losing streak in the postseason.

12:40: Bottom 12th and Weaver is back on the mound pitching to Big Papi...do the Red Sox miss Manny now??? Yes.

12:41: Weaver walks Ortiz, the leadoff man, this will be a fun half-inning

12:44: Full count and Youkillis flies out to deep center. A great at-bat that despite the end result shows the importance of patience and a good eye in a professional batter.

12:46: Jason Bay strikes out looking. Who needs Manny. 1 out away from an unbelivably improbable and gutsy win for the angels. Why couldnt the Cubs do this.

12:47: Unreal dig by Chone Figgins at 3rd base. The Streak is Over. I clearly cannot predict baseball games. An incredible performance by catcher Mike Napoli and starter turned reliever Jered Weaver lead to Game 4 on Monday at Fenway. Goodnight
