No Joshing here...Sawk stave off elimination

10/20/09 - GAME 4
Red Sox 16, Yankees 10

Another football game. Gaudin and Wakefield started the game. Neither one fooled anyone, except their respective managers, who tapped them to start. Josh Beckett was called out of the pen to save his team's season. With only 3 days rest and fighting fatigue and injury Beckett acted like the true ace that he was and threw almost 5 innings of top notch ball. He gave his team just enough, so they could chip away at the Yankees lead and eventually get to Papelbon, who closed the door. Papi went 4 for 5 and hit a homer in his 4th consecutive game. If his team had any chance to win this thing he'd be the odd on favorite for LCS MVP. Boston avoids the sweep, but there still doesn't seem to be much hope in Beantown.
