Cleveland wins, 6-2Comment -
Indians win. Because I picked them in the poll to win the series 4-2.

here is my analysis. the momentum has definitely swing to boston favor at this point. g. sizemore has always been a lucky mofo for the cleveland (just watch the hits he got in the series...especailly in game 5) but g size's luck ended with that missed line drive to center field...the one that hit his glove. as you all know, people in baseball are really suprstitious. my analysis is that sizemore will not be as much as a threat to the red sox and before...it is almost seem like he is jinxed. same goes for hefner...he has been terrible at bat today. lofton is also not doing well. suprisingly, casey has been hitting. so if i am the indian manager i would change the line up.
1.sizemore up 1st (he is still the best)
2.cabrera
3. martinez
4. peralta
5. nixon (DH)
6. lofton
7. blake
8. garko

i'll be rooting for the tribes. but i think the line should be red sox -150, so if you're going to bet, red sox is a better bet.Comment -
Initial reaction when seeing the lines is the total seems high. Took a bite, 2 units on U9-/(-105) at Pinnacle. Any thoughts?Comment -
neither pitcher lasted 5 innings last saturday...of the two...think shilling more capable of hitting his spots and lasting into the 5th or 6th..delcarmen should improve and okie may not have to appear until the 7th this time..
carmona is capable of being very good but think he gets rattled early..think he threw 100 pitches in 4 innings in game 2....if the red sox shake up their line-up and put men on base...they will score 6 or 7 runs....tribe will be good for 3 or 4 off shilling as well
unlike last saturday...think 7 runs wins this oneComment -
The Red Sox have faced two of the best AL pitchers and on all 3 occassions made them look average. I don't see that changing tomorrow. Schilling, of course, is the key - if he can have a reasonably good outing then, however long he lasts, they're definitely in the driving seat. If he only manages 4 innings, there's damn good back-up in Delcarmen, Lester, Okajima and Papelbon and, in a must win game, I'd expect Francona to throw everyone he can at the Tribe.Originally posted by pags11Originally posted by BuddyBearOriginally posted by curiousComment -
Cleveland will not win a Game 7 at Fenway. Tomorrow is do or die for them and they have a lot better chance to win on the road with Carmona than they do with Westbrook.Comment -
Shilling is a total wild card here. If he just makes it through the first few innings and gets some support, the Sox are in business.Comment -
Just make it through the first 4 innings................Comment -
1 down....... Hope the Tribe presses and stays cold.Comment -
4-0 Sox. Lets go Shilling. Keep the Tribe down!Comment -
One swing of the bat and the Red Sox should now be favored to win the World Series.wildComment
