The Sox have come back before (see 2004 vs. Yankees), but I'm still not optimistic with Wake pitching tonight. I'm doing a big rain dance right now. :biggrin:

With Wake pitching tonight you better do more than a dance :)if you want rain because this is knuckler it is not dancing we will jump all over his batting practice pitches.

Wakefield actually makes me a little nervous. The Tribe always seems to have trouble against slow-pitch guys.

By the way, my favorite part of game 3? The debate between the announcers over how many different pitches Dice-K needs before the catcher needs to use his thumb for signs. :lol:

Not a bad idea, but you missed this tidbit, then. It went something like this:

Announcer A: Dice-K throws so many pitches, Varitek has to use his thumb for the signs. That's pretty unusual for a pitcher to have more than four pitches.

Announcer B: More than five pitches, you mean, to need his thumb.

*uncomfortable silence*

Announcer B: No, no, more than four, you're right.

Are we sure Varitek isn't the six-fingered man?

I tried the radio on Saturday, but there was a two or three-second delay on the television broadcast. Tom Hamilton was telling me a pitch missed outside as the pitcher was starting his windup. It got pretty annoying.

"B" of course being Tim "Dumber than a bag of Hammers" McCarver.

Me thinks Timbo took a few too many foul tips off the facemask...

Well...

Much like the Glen Mason commentary last Saturday in the tOSU game... when I listen to McCarver, I often think to myself, "Boy... I hope he had a 6-pack before the game, because it would really suck to always be that stupid."

I heard this whole exchange live lastnight. I couldn't believe they would allow an announce on the air that was that stupid.
