Rays win.
Alright. I know a lot of people have been saying that anybody who wanted the rays to win is just jumping on the bandwagon. BUT I AM NOT. Ha but seriously. I still cannot believe they won the game and the series. After watching them lose in the first game to the sox 2-0 I was absolutely extatic when I watched them absolutely inialate them three games in a row. I know it may sound cruel but it made my two days to see redsox fans on the verge of tears when they were defeated 9-1 and 13-4!! It was unbelievable, something I dont think anyone saw coming. After those two games my heart was actually up in my throat October 19th after the sox had just won two straight. The sox definitly had the momentum coming into game 7 and hopes for the rays were definitly not up for most rays fans. It was the first inning and Dustin Pedroia stepped up to the plate. With a 1-2 count Pedroia blasted a fastball delivered by Matt Garza to deep left field. It was only the first inning and the rays were already in the whole. But as the game progressed Matt Garza just shut down in a total of seven innings pitched he had 9 k's, only 1 ER, and only allowed two hits. He seemed unstoppable. He wasnt the only one though holding up the team, with scores in the 4th and 5th inning and a homerun from Willy Aybar off of Jonathon Lester the rays had taken all pre game momentum from the sox and transfered onto their team. Its the ninth inning and all the rays had to do was get three solid outs, and Price did just that. He closed the game out to give the rays a very solid win to win a very tough played ALCS.
