There's still 6 games left for the Sox and Yanks. Those two series will decide it, I think.
I heard that the Tigers have the most losses since the All-Star break in the AL. But that's small consolation for Sox fans. Maybe Mick and I can just commiserate.

Well, Chuck, the Yankees, as usual, certainly do seem to control the direction that the playoffs will be headed. If the Red Sox and the Tigers don't begin feeling a sense of urgency, then we will be singing "wait 'til next year".
