Friday
David Wells gets “half-drunk” and splits a bucket of chicken with Wade Boggs before the game and Boggs HOF induction ceremony at Fenway. The formula works one more time as Wells throws a no-hitter for 9 innings. Unfortunately for the Red Sox, Chien Ming Wang is also awesome and holds the Red Sox scoreless for the first 8 innings. ****** “Unfrozen caveman centerfielder” Damon leads off the 9th with a walk after Joe Torre accidentally thinks about Alan Embry – even though Wang is still pitching (his exact thought is “man, I am glad Alan Embry isn’t pitching”). Renteria bunts Damon to second and reaches on a Robinson Cano error. The Yanks have to pitch to Big Papi who wins the game with a broken bat seeing eye bloop single.
1* Red Sox 1-0
Saturday
The winds comes whipping off the Boston Harbor and Wakefield’s knuckle ball is un-hittable. Of course he gives up the obligatory bombs to ARod and Giambi, while Joe Buck and Tim McCarver try to sort out who is going to go down to the clubhouse and give ARod a BJ. Randy Johnson is stellar. The game comes down to the battle of the AARP as John Olerud takes the Old Unit deep for a three run bomb that puts the Sox in front. Mike Timlin finishes the Yanks off in the ninth after walking the first three batters he faces, causing thousands of heart attacks across Red Sox Nation.
1* Red Sox 3-2
Sunday
After Schilling gives up 6 in the first inning, Francona brings in Wakefield on no days rest to pitch to the Yankees. Belichick coaches the guy who changes the oil in his car to an outstanding 13 tackle two interception performance at safety filling in for Rodney Harrison – wait – wrong game…Big Papi not only hits a home run every time he comes to the plate, but he pitches two innings of scoreless relief for his first career save.
1* Red Sox 13-11
Call me a homer - but I am really playing these! It has been a good season thanks to all of you at the forum, so even if these are not the smartest wagers ever- I want to end the season cheering my bets and my team!
*****Note – Cleveland chokes, so NYY and Boston do this all again in two weeks!
