In Boston tonight, the Red Sox pulled out a 3-2 win over the White Sox on a game winning homer by the Large Father, David Ortiz, in the bottom of the ninth inning. Tim Wakefield pitched brilliantly in his return to active duty, tossing 7 innings of one run ball. New friend RR, however, gave up a game tying homer in the 8th inning to Scott Podsednik, who homers approximately once per Halley's Comet.
It was all up to Big Papi then, and so, with one out in the ninth, he curled a homer around the foul pole for the game winner. Simple as that.
Very cool beans!
ReplyDeleteVery cool indeed. I'm heading to the game Friday night to see his Joshness face the the boys from the great white north.
ReplyDeleteBTW: It was Double R, Ramon Ramirez who gave up the Podzy dinger, not Mr. Ocean.
ReplyDeleteThanks Paulie. Duly noted.
