In all the years I've been a Red Sox fan...... (Since "Yaz" retired) I've never once thought that they wouldn't "choke" when the heat gets turned up...
They can blank the Yankees, but be as easily defeated by one of the worse teams in baseball, the Orioles..
I wonder will they continue to choke....
Looks like they might make the playoffs on a wild card whim, but who knows...
Pitching will need to improve greatly if the Red Sox have a chance in winning this year.
The Sox have always toyed with their fans' heartstrings. Remember the Buckner heartache? So close, yet so far. This year is no different. The rollercoaster goes up; the rollercoaster goes down. Sadly, it's always down when the music stops.

My mother went to her grave waiting for the Red Sox to win the World Series! But she was a devoted fan for 50 some odd years God love her.................
I gave up on those bozo's back in the sixties and turned my efforts to the Pats, And it paid off by golly.............
