Splat: ALCS Game Four

That sound you just heard was Boston's championship hopes hitting the ground and making a big mess.

In Game Four of the American League Championship Series, Tampa hit Boston early, and often, and then again late, pounding out 13 runs on 14 hits (?) on their way to a 13-4 win. Tampa now leads Boston, 3-1, with Game Five scheduled for Thursday, with Boston's back, obviously, against the wall. Once the other team wins four out of seven, of course, they don't let you play anymore. Well, you can play-it's just that they won't send umpires, or balls, or an opponent, or stuff like that.

Oops.

I'm not even mad, really-Tim Wakefield has worked hard for this team, and he just didn't have it tonight.

As the 2007 champs, we really don't have anything to complain about. Oh, well-just a kind of resigned feeling.
