Remember, the Red Sox slide from contention began by dropping 5 of 6 to the Devil Rays and. . . the Royals.

Didn't know that.

Fair enough. I'll keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best.

They had already blown the division lead when the Yankees rolled into town. The slide really started with the sweep by Tampa Bay.

They were a game and a half down when the series started. If they had won even one or two, they still woulda been close.

Of course, I really think that the timing of the Sox's injuries killed 'em more than anything else. They had theirs late; the Yankees had theirs early and managed to adjust.

Of course, Manny taking a September vacation didn't help either.
