Oh well...I thought it was an easy call, but the ump didn't, so that's the way it goes. I will say this - Papelbon is a stud! In his post-game interview yesterday, after a 1-2-3 9th inning where he threw something like 11 pitches, he talked about how 'lucky" he was to get out of the inning - M's had two long flies off him, but not even close to the wall - and how he was going to have to work harder in the future. Pretty impressive!
