Are we really just one away? Really?

An amazing game tonight- ran the gamut from the feel of a blowout (we're leading 6-0!) to a nailbiter (oh, hell, we're hanging on to a 6-5 lead!) to a put it all together and shut the door performance (that's right, we're 10-5 now, and Papelbon is going to blow a hole in your soul, Colorado). It was the best of baseball all rolled into one.

They wouldn't show the replay on the jumbotron in the park, but everyone in my section thought Manny was safe at home- that the tag was late (unless he pulled a Matt Holliday and missed the plate completely, which is a strong possibility).

I'm happy to report the fans in Colorado are approximately 1,000,000 times more fun, more pleasant and more civilized than those we ran into in Cleveland -- and that there are approximately 1,000,000 times more Red Sox bars for us to party in as well.

Tomorrow: game 4. We're coming for you, Rockies. And we're not going to play nice.
