Expect The Unreal

  1. It was totally unreal… My friend Rory and I were watching the game, and they were down 7-0, and we started saying things like “Ok, I just hope they get one run; we see one last Sox player cross the plate.. That would make me happy”.. Then that happened… And then the breeze started by Papi’s three-run jack gave some oxygen to that fading spark in my heart, I could see the faintest glimpse of light at the end of the tunnel…

    After the victory, I actually turned to Rory and wondered aloud if I was, in fact, dreaming…

    I’ve never understood people leaving games early… I was at a game a few years ago where the Sox were down by 2 runs and were playing pretty mediocre ball through the 8th.. People started leaving en masse, but we stuck it out, and then came the 3 run walk-off homer…

    It’s bad enough when you’re waiting for a late friend before the game on Yawkey and you hear the game starting and some commotion with no clue as to what is happening.. but I can’t imagine choosing to leave the game early then hearing the crowd go crazy as I walk to my car…

  2. Great words to illustrate a great ending!

  3. I love baseball! So great that this happens again and again….Sox have 11 walk-off wins so far this year!!
