Then Alex Rodriguez singled to bring Hideki Matsui up as the tying run and he would face the left-handed Scott Downs.We all know how tough he can be against lefties, 11 homers this year off southpaws coming into the at-bat. And when Downs threw Matsui a 1-2 curveball he was ready, and golfed it into the seats in right for a game-tying two-run homer. I know they were 6.5 up at the time, ...

  • And it could not happen to a nicer guy.
  • Yeah he's a great guy. :)

They will end up with a 40 homer guy and at least 2 0thers with 30 or more, and 8 with 20 or more. That is sick my man. Enjoy the postseason, and you just know we will be playing the Sox for the ALCS, it's inevitable.
  • Yeah it was, lol. It was hilarious watching Robbie and Melky chasing him down into right field. You enjoy the postseason too. I can't wait for it. :)
