So, Tito held tryouts for the playoff roster (Astacio and Adams, you’re out), while Tim Hudson contributed nicely to the Sox’s offensive preparation by pitching batting practice. Keith Foulke got 1 out for a really cheap 5-run save, and Pedro hits 94 before getting some rest for a crucial stretch. It’s flabbergasting, frankly. Who, seriously, would have thought the Sox’s record in this Angels-Rangers-As stretch would be 8-1? Who would have thought the Rangers would most benefit in this battle for the AL West title because they went 1-2? I’m as optimistic as anyone, and I was seeing 6-3, 7-2 at best. Now the Crank Yankers are only 2 games back. It’s really, really weird to see a Sox team defy expectations. No let downs now. The Sox are on to Seattle, and it’s time to start beating up on the soft underbelly of the AL.
