Angels vs. Red Sox Open Thread

You guys can use this thread to discuss the game in Anaheim or anything else playoff related.

Here are the schedule of events planned for tomorrow night's game two in the Bronx. Mr. October himself, Reggie Jackson will be throwing out the ceremonial first pitch.

In other news, Brett Gardner isn't expected to start tomorrow against the Twins. Jorge Posada hopes to contribute off the bench tomorrow, and said "It's all about the team right now. It's not about me. It's about everybody together."

Here's yesterday's roll call, the first postseason roll call in new stadium history:



And here are the lineups for the Sox-Angels game:

ANGELS (0-0)
Chone Figgins 3B

Torii Hunter CF

I don't really know who I'm rooting for, probably neither. What about you?

By the way, did anyone just see how Matt Holliday blew that game for the Cards? Holy cow, what a terrible play.
