Congratulations to the Boston Red Sox (and their fans) for winning the American League Championship Series. The Cleveland Indians started off well, then faltered. As so often happens in the postseason, it came down to pitching. Cleveland’s top two starters, C. C. Sabathia and Fausto Carmona, didn’t perform; Boston’s top two starters, Josh Beckett and Curt Schilling, did. As for what’s to come, I think Boston will win the World Series, perhaps by way of a sweep. Experience is important in the postseason, and Boston has more of it than Colorado. That said,  I hope the Rockies prevail. It’ll be interesting to see whether the weather cooperates in Denver this weekend.
