Game 3 Break Down

Game 3 Indians and Red Sox

I wanted to do this yesterday but really was a little ok way to tired to do so because of the game sat/sun night. I really did not ever think I would be tired inside a bar ever in my life well what did I know funnier things have happened to me before. I still am getting goosebumps after thinking about the 11th inning today almost 2 days later. If I have this kind of motivation how much can the Indians have after coming off that electric win? We will find out tonight.

At the corner of Ontario and Carnegie Jake Westbrook and the Cleveland Indians will be hosting Dice K and his Boston Red Sox at Jacobs Field. Game time 7pm Eastern time. A very interesting match up will take place Dice K in his last 6 starts he has pitched in 31 innings he has given up 27 earned runs, 39 hits and walked 17 batters going 2-1 while striking out 30. This kid is going to be good but I think the Indians have got him at the right time. I think he has worn down and can be beat. DiceK will be facing Jake Westbrook who can be the most up and down pitcher this side of the earth. If he can keep his pitches down and get the ground outs he looks for this should be a W for the tribe.

Keys To The Game

-------------------------

Red Sox

1. Must win - Yes I really think its a must win for the Red Sox I am not saying that they can not come back if they loose but it will be tuff. Both CC and Fausto will not continue to have bad games.

2. Stay away from the Bullpen - I really think if it gets back into the bullpen they just do not have enough back end to hang with the depth the tribe has.

Indians

1. Ground Ball Outs - You will know at the end of the 2 inning if Jake has it or not if he is going to be off there will be fly ball outs right off the bat.

2. Crowd Participation - Cleveland fans know how to bring the noise and I know that this helps the home team and effects the away team.

I will be watching (taping as well) this game because I have a feeling it could be the best of the series. A must win for both teams but I think as said before I think its more of a must win for the Red Sox. Should be a good one.
