And then the momentum shifted

Five most memorable moments of tonight's Red Sox win over the Cleveland Indians, in no particular order, except numeric ...
1. David Ortiz congratulating Josh Beckett in the dugout on a game well pitched, and then hugging him from behind while laying his head on Beckett's back. So cute to see Big Papi engaged in such a fun, grateful and humble gesture.
2. Video highlights of Jonathan Papelbon dancing and goofing off after the team won the division.
3. Kevin Youkilis' triple that scored two to put the game, more or less, out of reach for the Indians.
4. Hearing Joe Buck talk about all the Indians players who went on record saying that they did not want this series to go back to Boston. They're scared. I like that. Boston can be brutal on the guys-who-play-the-Red-Sox, so Indians, you're down for the count.
5. Um, just the fact that they live to fight another day!

GO SOX!!
