Game 3 wasn’t that fucking important—at least not important enough to go 18. Cora should’ve given it his best to win it in 9. Going 18 and using tonight’s starter was pure hubris. And now nearly all of your arms are kaput, and the rest of your lineup has gotta be deflated as well.
Cora has proved to be an outstanding manager, but I don't think that game 3, with a 2-0 series lead was the time to go all-in.

I always thought Dombrowski was a crap GM who emptied farm systems (he still does) and gives big contracts. He clearly hit gold on Cora and Martinez...especially Martinez
Incessant. Then it’d stop. Then start up again. Go for 10 minutes. Stop. Then start up again. 2:30- 4:00 in the morning. Like an ice pick to the brain.

looks like a poor excuse for a crowd. I guess parades have gotten old for the bawstan folk.
If I had known then what I know now...

We didn't have all these fancy championships when I was growing up, just relentless disappointment after relentless disappointment. 1967, 1975, 1978, 1986, AND Grady Fucking Little.
Parade days are the only days I miss working in Back Bay.
Ha ha! I work in Back Bay and opted to work from home today.
We lived in the Fenway in 2004. I went to two ALCS games and 1 WS game that year, but we took some vacation days and went up to Maine for the parade.
Which ALCS games?
I was at game 5.
I was at 4 and 5. For 5, which was 12 innings, I think, I was under a pipe that was dripping on me for about 7 innings, then Papi hit a bloop. Good times.

Game 5 was 14 innings. I had standing rooms for game 3, which after the rain out became game 5. I showed up when doors opened to get a decent spot behind Grandstand 14 (had scoped things out before game 3 was called and found a spot with a rail to lean on), my brother in law met me shortly after. So was on my feet or something like 7.5 hours straight (after working during the day), but well worth it.
