Thanks, SB.
I wasn't all that impressed by how the Sox played against the Tigers (although the results were good). Lat night's game was fun to watch (even if as klyd said that the Cards played uncharacteristically poorly).
Big Papi is unreal. I'd now list him as the best post-season hitter I've ever seen.
I don't have a rooting interest, but last night's game was fun. The Beltran catch was amazing, even though it meant nothing to the outcome of the game. Anytime a players jumps and takes a HR back is awesome, let alone what would have been a grand slam.
I was also glad to see that the umps reversed the wrong call in the 1st inning. To get the call wrong in the first inning of Game 1 would have been really for the series moving forward.
In regard to SC's comment about Big Papi as the best playoff hitter he has seen, it's an interesting discussion. Certainly he's in the discussion. For my money, it would probably be Reggie Jackson. But debating these kinds of things is what makes sports so great.
