Red Sox, Rays 10.11.08

1
   If the Sox win,
I'll wake my dad —
   otherwise I'll sleep.


2
   You got no place
in this lineup, Kotsay —
   Camel hard pack.


3
   Not far from Boston
I pull for the Red Sox —
   there's nothing wrong with me.

Red Sock Trio

"Don't hold the ball,"
Dad said.
"You're no Johnny Pesky."

2
A misnomer,
Papelbon's "sludder" is not
An easy pitch to hit.

Soupy says,
"Bum rap on Pesky:
Slow relay, fast Slaughter."
