[Porsche-O-Phile]

I have to admit I did. Sorry, the ghosts of '75, '86 and '03 all had me thinking this was another heartbreaker, especially given how crummy the offense was performing. . . or should I say "not performing" prior to Thursday. That win gave me a little hope, although there was still pretty poor production from the bottom half of the lineup. It was nice to see those bats come to life again, ditto on the pitching, especially from Schilling. He got himself into a spot of trouble in the 3rd and kind of squeezed himself out (a bit by luck I think) but it's still nice to see.

I'll be watching Game 7 for sure tomorrow. Even if they should happen to lose, they've at least earned my respect again.
