Without going and looking it up, I can't recall the last time this team won a game in extra-innings on the road. (Now that I have looked it up, it wasn't that long ago. Useless statistics: They've played in thirteen extra-innings games this season and eight of those thirteen have come on the road. Of all of those games, they've won in extra innings only four times--with two of those wins coming on the road. They won in thirteen innings in Seattle on July 22 and in ten innings in Colorado on June 24.)
But this one belongs to Josh Beckett who, once again, laid an egg and a particularly rotten one at that. I don't know if he's decided to rest on his laurels or something but the man is having a rough year. And of course Bardo who, while responsible for less of the suckfest, shouldn't have let the tying run score.
I suppose, though, that Texas is play-off bound (if only because it seems improbable that the Angels could catch up. I'd hazard, though, that they'll be summarily booted in the first round because they're just not very good at baseball.) and we ought to acknowledge that. And we're left with: Que Sera, Sera. The Sun Will Come Out Tomorrow and Save us Jonny K.
Also, please beat the crap out of CJ Wilson on Sunday because the man is a jackass of epic proportions. Thank you.
