Tonight’s do-or-die game for the Red Sox will feature the Game 1 starters Josh Beckett and C.C. Sabathia. We can only hope that tonight we see a repeat performance of Game 1 with Beckett pitching well and Sabathia getting lit up like Clark Griswold’s Christmas Tree in Christmas Vacation. Seriously, it’s put up or shut up time for the Sox. One loss and they are joining their other baseball brethren on the golf course or in places like South Beach or any other warm venue. That’s not going to happen though Sox fans is it. It’s going to be a great game pitched by our ace, Beckett, and then back on to Beantown for Game 6 with Big Game Schilling on the mound.
