Afternoon Red Sox Delight – 9/2

My weekend was great, thanks!
Ended up watching most of the Friday night game at a bar with about 30 other people that were in town for the weekend for Saturday’s game; that was a good one.
I was extremely confident that they would get Saturday’s game in; what was shocking to me is that they actually started on time. Cold night for an August game, but excellent results.
Since I was pretty much off...
Young Guns: Sox-Rays Gamer XV
The Sox got the win they needed in Game 1 of the series, so I'm not sweating this one, which should be a good matchup between David Price and Clay Buchholz, who may now be the Sox' No. 2 pitcher behind Jon Lester. Comment away!

Pitching out of this stretch
Former Jets coach Herm Edwards is known for saying, “You play to win the game.’’ And Josh Beckett is no different.
Wild Card Tightens
Bruce is on pre-NFL R&R for a few days and has named me as backup QB. Hopefully, I’ll fare a little better than Kevin O’Connell if, for no other reason, I don’t want to be banished to Detroit.

More Globe 10.0 With Bob & Shank
The Globe's dynamic duo discuss Josh Beckett and his recent struggles (you'll have to scroll down to the next clip, more as time passes; they don't embed video clips as separate URL's). I would think that these two would share notes beforehand, as Shank stumbled on a couple of fact-type things and was quickly corrected by Bob. I'm aware that Ryan's been on TV more often (ESPN's Sports...
