Daiskue was a big surprise last night. I doubted him, and he responded with the best start you could hope for, failing only when Okajima couldn't rescue him. Speaking of Hideki, I think Boston coffee shops should start selling "Mokajimos." It's like a Mochachino, but Japanese!
Anyhoo, I know the sentiment is that the series is over, but it's hit-or-miss Jon Lester going against a still formidable Rockies-at-home lineup. Coors Field is just way too much of a wild card to think tonight will be an easy win for Boston. However, it would be amazing to see a cancer survivor be the winning pitcher in a World Series clincher.

Defense, special teams, and a no-turnovers offense lead the way as the Deacons cruised over Carolina. We've now won six straight, putting us at 6-2 (4-1). The folks over at AP have recognized this, and put us at #21 in their latest poll. However, in quite a discrepancy, the Coaches Poll has us all the way down at #28. Weak.
