Curses!
Apparently, the Yankees’ strategy of tiring out the Red Sox by letting them score so much they’d become exhausted didn’t really pan out. Couple that with the surprising revelation that pitching is an important part of the game and you have the most sensational flameout in playoff history. Now I’m going to end up having to watch the series in hopes of seeing that smug Johnny “Breck for Men” Damon get his comeuppance. Something about him just sets my teeth on edge. Grrrr.
