Series 7: Boston RedSox (bbissette19) vs. LA Dodgers (HulkisReady)

Game 1

Boston 12

Dodgers 1

Win: Clay Buccholz

Player of Game: JD Drew


In the first, the Dodgers came out swinging, scoring 1 run off 3 Hits. In the bottom half of the inning, the RedSox tied the game on a JD Drew Homer. Buccholz then settled down. In the 3rd inning, the RedSox caught fire scoring 4 runs led by Big Papi's triple, yes TRIPLE, Wow, he was running in slow motion folks, signing autographs running by the bases, even ordering a hotdog rounding second. You had to see it to believe it. In the 7th, RedSox tacked on a few more with a Pedroia RBI triple, scoring Ellsbury who led off with a double. In the eighth, this is where it gets interesting. Ortiz, yes, I said Big Papi, hits an inside the park HR. He then was led to the training room to get oxygen and another hotdog. Later in the same inning, JD Drew hits a grand slam to seal the deal. Buccholz allowed only 3 more hits the whole game. Great outing by Clay.

Game 2

Boston 13

Dodgers 4


Player of the Game: Victor Martinez

Winning Pitcher: Brad Penny


The Red Sox took the lead early in the 4th with a 2-Run HR by JD Drew. In the 4th, Victor Martinez hit a Solo HR. There was also a CPU error in the 1st inning of the ballgame. There was a ball hit to the wall in the corner of the Green Monster. Hulk threw the ball in but it looked to me like the throw went over the stands and I am assuming the the CPU recognized it as a ball that was thrown in the stands. Weird. Anyway, Youklis and Martinez had back to back RBI Singles in the 5th inning. In the 6th, Drew hit a ball to the wall that was caught but scored a run. Bay followed with a HR. Victor Martinez and Big Papi went back to back later that inning. The Dodgers roared back in the 9th hitting back to back to back HR's but a little too late. Boston, 13, Dodgers, 4.

Game 3

Boston 8

Dodgers 1

Player of the game: Josh Beckett

Game went by pretty fast. It was a pitching duel until the 6th when the Red Sox exploded for 4 runs capped off by a Big Papi 2-Run HR to take a 4-0 lead. Youklis hit a 2 run single in the 7th. In the 8th, Ellsbury hit a 2 Run HR. Final Score, Red Sox 8, LA, 1. Good series Hulk.
