They pulled it off!
On the edge of my computer seat excitement for me as I strained to watch Gamecast and waited ever so patiently for the updates.
After 133 pitches in the 7th inning, Schilling was relieved of his duties as the game was tied up, 5-5. 133 picthes. Yikes. Only Pedro Martinez topped that with 136 pitches in Red Sox history. He then was on the Dl with a strained shoulder a few weeks later. So what to do. One batter away from the end of the 7th, 133 pitches, game ties up, Francona decides to pull him… Cleveland is a great hitting team and Schilling did a fantastic job keeping the hits at bay. It was now up to the Sox Offense to finish it off. Thanks to Ortiz being intentionally walked, Manny hit one out in Centerfield, 3 run shot. And the boys won it for my birthday 8-6. Record now is 13-7.
Wakefield is starting tonight. 7pm and finally the game is on ESPN. Yeah!
