UPDATE: Sox win ALDS in game 4 (3-2) at Fenway Park

The Red Sox battled last night, and this morning, for the ALDS title but came up short after 12 innings. Beckett started the game and quickly allowed the Angels on base leading to a run in the first inning. The bottom of the first saw a 3 RBI single by Ellsberry that cleared the bases after a pop fly landed in shallow right. Both sides tied the score at 4-4 in the 5th inning and went scoreless until the top of the 12th when the Angels took the lead to win.

This was my second post season game (0-2) since 1996. I had my camera ready (and a radio to listen to Jerry Remy’s play by play) and awaited to celebrate the division victory at Fenway Park. Fenway is a special place not only in terms of sports but architecturally it defines an emotional connection to a building that is timeless. Although the Sox didn’t sweep the the series in 3, it was an amazing game as the fans stuck it out for 12 innings on a colder New England fall night. I’m looking forward to Game 4 tonight on the TV!
