flipping between channels i caught the last three home runs by the BOSOX live last night. watched the final two innings of at-bats for the dodgers.

i think this might be the best team since the league went to the current format with teams needing to win two series to get to the WS. this boston team proved in the post-season what they showed in the regular season. they were the best team this year-no question.

they get such great at-bats from so many players in the lineup during the nine innings that they put a lot of pressure on the opposing teams pitching staffs.

when will the twins put out a lineup of so many tough outs combined with that kind of pitching? that's what you're going to need to do to win a WS these days. at least something kind of close to what you saw this year with boston. it's just too difficult to win that many post-season games without a very stacked team imo.

I still give the advantage to that 98 Yankees team. Their pitching wasn't dominant, but those hitters could mash.

i thought about that team-and they could be the one. i really like how this red sox team plays the game though.
