I have to say last week I watched one of the funnest, most enjoyable things I have ever seen on television. The only way it could have been better would be if Ian were watching it with me. He would have been doing the dance-jump and laughing until his eyes watered. We would've been high-fiving and cheering and watching replays every few minutes.
It was the Boston Red Sox versus the Detroit Tigers. The game where Big Pappy got his 2000th hit.
The sportscasters kept saying these were the 2 teams to watch for the pennant and I could see why. . .until the 6th inning. That was when the real fun began. When the bottom of the 6th began the score was 5 to 4.
The Sox scored 8 runs that inning. I don't remember how many homers that inning, but a couple at least. They were saying at one point that everyone had scored except Pedrioa.
Ortiz got 2 home runs. There was a Grand Slam by Middlebrooks--after a walked in run--I know that has a particular name, but I don't know what it is. Ellsbury got a homer.
It got so bad that they put in the 2nd stringers and they scored homers too. That poor Detroit pitcher. I don't know why they left him in.
I actually considered saving the 4+ hour game on the DVR to watch when I'm down. It was great.
GO SOX!
