The Red Sox pulled away from the Rockies 10-5 in game number 3 of the 2007 World Series bringing them within a game of their second championship in 4 years. Thoughts:
Dice-K pitched 5 and a third dominant innings of 3 hit ball before, surprise, getting himself into trouble in the 6th with 2 walks. In [...]
The Red Sox held on to a 2-1 victory over the Rockies to take a 2 games to none lead as the series heads to Colorado for games 3, 4, and if needed 5. Thoughts:

The Red Sox crushed the Rockies 13-1 to take game one of the 2007 World Series. Thoughts:
