If Wakefield's knuckler is dancing consistently like it did two or three years ago, the Sox have a chance to get back in this. If not, the Rays can and will take a commanding 3-1 lead in the series.
Maybe now the nation (and I'm excluding the delusional Red Sox Nation) will start to believe that the Rays have in fact been the better team all season. Maybe now the commentators will stop looking for the "deer in the headlights" look in the eyes of the youthful Rays players and enjoy the immense talent and athleticism that has been a hallmark of their play all season. They did win 97 games this season, that is not a fluke.
Maybe tonight we should begin looking for the look of resignation in the Sox players eyes. After they pound Wakefield's knuckler into the night, all we may have to look forward from this series is a "don't let them celebrate on our turf" type of last stand in Game 5 by the Sox. After that it will be back to St. Pete for a cow-bell ringing, Rays fans singing celebration as the Rays finish them off at home
Where is Schilling and his bloody sock when you need him?
GO RAYS!!!!
