Red Sox won 4-1 against the Angels tonight in Game 1 of the ALDS. My choice for MVP of tonight's game is a toss up between Jason Bay who gave us the lead with his 2 run homer and Jacoby Ellsbury who played well offensively and defensively--multiple hits, 2 stolen bases, and an amazing catch that made me fear that he may have gotten a good mouthful of dirt in the process. Pitching wise, Jon Lester really showed the Angels what he was made of--lots of good pitches and 7 strike outs to boot! Did I mention that the Sox pretty much stunk against LA all season ? They lost 8 out of 9 games against them in the regular season. I believe they can win the ALDS. Go Red Sox!
Random Note: I can't watch a full post-season Red Sox game without knitting. Well I suppose I could, but my anxiety levels might go through the roof. The post-season is a great time to make Christmas gifts. I'm about 1/3 of the way through my first post-season knitting project of this year.
