BOSTON — With each invigorating inning, the outlook grew more sublime for the Tampa Bay Rays. They are young, fearless and resilient and they were about to bury the Boston Red Sox. Seven outs were all the Rays needed to reach their first World Series and end Boston’s season. Seven outs.

Mark Kotsay is greeted by teammates David Ortiz, right, and Jason Varitek after scoring the tying run in the eighth inning.


But the Rays could not get those unlucky seven outs. The Red Sox stunned the Rays by rebounding from a seven-run seventh-inning deficit to win, 8-7, in Game 5 of the American League Championship Series. Seemingly dead, the Red Sox unfurled a miraculous rally in the last three innings and trail three games to two in the best-of-seven series.

Go Sox!!
 
Does this really deserve a thread of its own in the Current Events forum?
 
Yes. My life is made up of about 50% baseball, 20% women, and 30% school. And not only that but it made baseball history!!!

I play baseball, I watch baseball, and I coach baseball.

Whoo! See, just because that one guy that isn't fan doesn't what this to be a thread doesn't mean other people do.

HAHA!
 
Go Sox is right!
I remember this game the other day, and I was losing hope.
When I woke up in the morning, I was shocked that they won!
What an unbelievable comeback!

All I have to say is, for the people who left that stadium in the middle of the game in dissapointment for the Red Sox, they must be kicking themselves for missing a wonderful game. :rolleyes:
 
Still don't see why this could have not gone into the official playoffs thread.......

Problem is, there is already a baseball thread talking about the playoffs. This thread is A) in the wrong forum B) redundant. It's forum etiquette. Should I post a new thread every time the Yankees come back from behind? Should I post a thread about how evil Apple is for removing FireWire from the Macbooks even though there is a thread already made discussing that topic?

No you shouldn't, because the Yankees suck.

Real fans never turn off the game.

Amen to that.

They should be banned from Fenway for life.

Amen to that as well.
 
I'm not a baseball fan but as a Floridian, I'm rooting for the Tampa Bay Rays. I hope Boston's comeback is short-lived.
