Five years ago today …

And how it became possible? They came back against Mariano Rivera in the ninth inning of Game 4. Millar walked,Red Bull Hats, Roberts stole,Cheap Light hats, and Big Papi sent everyone home in the 12th.
For those Red Sox fans — and there are a lot of you — bummed that you are not watching your team play in the ALCS,New Era MLB Hats, keep this in mind:
Game 7,wholesale San Diego Padres Hats, the Red Sox sent Derek Lowe to the mound on two days rest. And he was brilliant. So was Johnny Damon, clocking two homers.
Today is the five-year anniversary of Game 7 of the 2004 ALCS. I think that was the second most significant win in Red Sox history,Wholesale Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Hats, right after Game 4 of that 2004 World Series.
Three white-knuckle innings out of the bullpen by Tim Wakefield — with Varitek catching him — and finally Papi sent everyone home again,Cheap Chicago White Sox Hats, this time a “little flair” as Jerry Trupiano called it. Then Joe Buck proclaimed,DC Hats, “Damon is running to the plate, he can keep on running to New York … Game 6 tomorrow night.”
Remember five years ago. It is probably one of your greatest sports memories ever.
By the time it ended, the Red Sox were spraying each other with champagne in the very same clubhouse they were crying in one year earlier after the Grady/Aaron Boone fiasco.
Think about it,Houston Astros Hats, the Red Sox were down 3-0, which used to be a death sentence in a postseason series. The Red Sox are still the only team in either baseball or basketball to overcome a 3-0 series in any postseason series.
And yes,Cheap YUMS Hats, Game 6. The bloody sock. The A-Rod slap. The Bellhorn homer off the chest of a fan that was originally ruled a double. And pure guts by Keith Foulke,Wholesale New York Yankees Hats, who finished his three-day, 100-pitch stand by blowing a fastball by Tony Clark to set up Game 7.
That set the stage for an even wilder Game 5. Papi again started the trek back with a Monster Mash against Tom Gordon. Millar again drew a walk. Roberts again pinch-ran. Trot Nixon — who had made two game-saving plays defensively earlier in the game — came through with a hit-and-run singe to right,Ray ban sunglasses are giving you chic design and,cheap Boston Red Sox Hats, making it corners and nobody out,Monster Energy Hats, Sox still down by a run in the 8th. The Yankees went to Mo again. Varitek came through with a sacrifice fly to tie it.
