Justice for All.

When I was in elementary school, you could tell who the Catholic kids were because after mindlessly intoning the pledge of allegiance every one of us would drop an 'amen' at the end of it. Not that I pledge allegiance to the flag very often any more but I still have a difficult time not letting an 'amen' slip out.

Anyway.

Team! Look at you! It may not have started that way but how much fun did that turn out to be?

Lesson learned, if you're the Yankees: You might plunk Papi because the media pressured you into doing it (Which shows a really impressive lack of character; if the media told you to jump off a bridge, would you do it?) but you're not going to be able to beat him this year. I hope, dear Yankees, that you feel avenged for the flipped bat because I certainly feel good about the outcome of the game and the series.

There really were so many lovely things in this game: Beckett pitched wonderfully, David, Jed and Nick Swisher, Cam (Yay, Cam!), Ellsbury. All in all, it was a really great win.
