We're in extra innings. Pedroia couldn't produce with the winning run 90 feet from home.
Go Sox!

That Cust HR, btw, was one of the weakest home runs in Fenway Park history. Just saying….

That's only a HR in Fenway, me thinks

Let’s hope is no big deal. But I’m glad to have Casey on the bench, because, you know… If Lowell or Youk go down with an injury, we have a good replacement.

There's no one else available on the bench
So Papi would have to move to first. And that would mean Timlin would have to bat in Youk’s spot, if it came to that.

Also, I could be mistaken because I only saw one AB, but Kershaw’s stuff isn’t nearly as good as I thought it was. Pretty flat FB.

NESN just showed the at bat: was that the first pitch? He appeared to hit himself in the head when he was swinging his bat.
