10/19/04 CS Game6 at Yankees W 4-2

Nothing like a heart attack ninth... From the first inning, it was apparent that the Red Sox hitters planned to take control of this game. And so they did, threatening several times in the first three innings, and breaking it open with four runs in the fourth off Jon Lieber. Officiating was the highlight of this game, with a changed call giving Bellhorn a home run - clearly over the wall in replays (I saw it when it happened, I don't know how Jim Joyce missed it) to the interference call on A-Rod who very clearly swiped at the glove of Bronson Arroyo knocking the ball away. Actually, he probably would have been better giving himself up, it's possible that Jeter may have gotten third had he backed up instead of smacking the glove.

A marvelous performance by Curt Schilling, and a tremendous ninth inning from Keith Foulke who seems to have not had a day off in a week. Although there were a few questionable balls & strikes that were called leading to a pair of walks.

Already having made history by forcing a seventh game, this year's Sox have an opportunity to give themselves a place in baseball history by winning tomorrow night.
