Top of the 8th, Red Sox are ahead 13-1.

It's the Sox. Of course I can't relax.

ETA: Okay, I can relax for now. But back to nail chewing tomorrow.

Have I mentioned lately how frightengly badass your Sox are? And have a look at the Pats, as well... what's in the water out there in Beantown?

Our Father, who art at Fenway...
Baseball be thy game. Thy Kingdom come,
Playoffs need to be won,
On Earth, then on to the Cask 'n' Flagon.
Give us this day, a perfect Papi,
And forgive us our losses,
As we forgive those,
Like Bill Buckner.
And lead us not, into desperation,
But deliver us from any losses.
For thine is the Power,
And the Glory,
To beat the Indians,
Forever and ever....the Yankees $#%@

Oh, Fox had to go and put up the perfect stat for this game and the Red Sox.

The Sox set a new record for margin of victory in World Series Game 1. The record had previously been 11 runs, held by two teams...both of whom then lost the overall Series. And the Sox had to break this particular record by scoring 13 runs...these things do not bode well.

On the other hand, the Sox are continuing their comeback ways. Their last 11 runs were all scored with 2 outs (and I'm still trying to figure out if the entire lineup managed to bat in the fifth after the second out).

I will kindly remind you that we won the world series during one of the illest possible omens.
