Talk about an icon. How representative of the Sox season was a game in which the Sox started off well, put up with a weak middle, and had a strong finish? Also representative of their individual seasons:
- Ortiz getting the winning runs with a homer
- Bronson pitching great and getting a no-decision
- Lowe getting into trouble but getting a win (okay, not so much trouble this time)
Forget the “postseason is a rollercoaster” - sometimes the individual games are rollercoasters.
