David Ortiz just ended his season by bunting down the 3rd base line. (For those of you who don't know, Ortiz is so known for pulling the ball to the right side of the field, opposing defenses shift to the right. Thus, nobody was anywhere near the 3rd base line to field that dribbling slow hit.)
Red Sox are beating the Yankees at the moment, 4-2. That's not much of a lead, but it beats trailing.
[3:26 ETA] And now Papi's pinch-runner, Reddick, has scored, making it 5-2.
[3:53 ETA] Oh, that rally scored two more runs after that. Now, Jed Lowrie has hit a home run past Pesky's Pole, making it 8-2, bottom of the 7th.
[4:33 ETA] Now, in the top of the 9th, they just pulled Jason Varitek so that he could get a standing ovation. This may be his last game as a player, maybe.
[4:47 ETA] And Papelbon finally got thru the 9th inning, after an error and too many hits and an unearned run. Ugly last inning, but we started the season with a win against the Yankees, and we end the season with a win against the Yankees. Too bad about all those injuries.
