It was a beautiful weekend in Boston, especially for baseball. The Sox ended up taking two-out-of-three from Baltimore, the best of the three games for the Sox coming yesterday afternoon. A 9th inning comeback on Mothers Day. I’ll be honest around the 7th inning I stepped away from the tube to play some Halo 2 with one of the roommates, but I left the TV on for any audible cues.� Low and behold I had to step away from playing Halo 2 online to watch the Sox get 6 runs in the bottom of the 9th. Here’s an article from the Globe detailing the come-back. I’m still astounded that Baltimore took out Guthrie, who had only thrown 91 pitches, with one out in the bottom of the 9th. They should have tried to have him get the double play, the likely-hood that he himself was going to cost you the game after pitching a gem was minimal. Not to mention Coco only got on base by sheer luck, the fans at Fenway must have started blowing at the same time to cause the wind to wreck havoc on that pop-up. Perlozzo was kicking himself in the ass after that game for making that move.
