ALL THE KNUCKLING!


I wasn't ready to get too cocky about this series, mostly cause it's all a little tenuous. Tallet settled down. It was pretty tied. Except it wasn't a tie. Go Kevin Millar. Die Papelbon, etc.

The NESN broadcast was a bit hilarious.

The blond asking Cito in a pre-game interview if seeing Toronto's name at the top of the standings on the Monster was weird. And Cito was all smooth charm, saying "I've seen it there before."

Talking about the excellent work of Brad Arnsberg while showing Brian Butterfield. Although it was not quite as hilarious as it could have been. They could've shown Cito.

Eckersley was very nervous and twitchy. He kept talking about how fast the game was going, how it was hard to comment on something going so fast. "My god, IT'S OUT OF CONTROL, ALL THE KNUCKLING!!!" He also called Roy Halladay the best pitcher in baseball and then apologized for it.

It's almost as if having the Jays in the building made him bug, like someone had whispered "Alomar..." to him before the broadcast.

And, like I've said, I don't go to SOSH when the Sox win. So, here's hoping I go tonight.
