Re: PedCHOKEro

Baloney, this was a team built with hitting. They wound up with the charity
pick to get into the playoffs. Grady went brain dead, had a Senior moment,
slipped a clot, wet diaper, whatever he clearly blew it leaving in Pedro.
The Mighty Yanks hit around 215 for the series. With 3/4 of the team in a
slump the Sox couldn't beat the Yanks. I'm not mad nor concerned about the
loss because I realize this is Boston's method of operation. Whether it's
the dig, the Celts or Sox. At 4 zip I knew the Sox were in trouble....
