American League Champions!

Well three years later and they do it again!! It was scary in the 5th inning, there were a couple of questionable calls that the Sox got lucky on, and later an error by Lugo... I definitely broke a sweat... but in the end the Red Sox offense took off showing that even if the correct calls (V. Martinez getting thrown out by Manny when he was visibly safe comes to mind...) had been made we would have still overcame the efforts of Cleveland. So to celebrate, here's "Sweet Caroline" a 8th inning sing along tradition at Fenway Park. A fan took this and posted it on Youtube... while definitely rough and amateurish, I thought it was a nice window into the ambiance that is the Fenway experience.
There were more "Riverdance" sequences performed tonight by Papelbon but I imagine it will take a day or so for that to show up on Youtube. I'll be sure to look for them.




And of course no Red Sox celebration would be complete without the Standells... so here they are in their amusing TV video for "Dirty Water".
