Still Ugly, Still Serviceable

The Red Sox did lead the whole way, so that's good. But 4 more errors, a record-tying 3 from third baseman Bill Mueller (a former SF Giant), mean it's another game that won't show up in a highlights reel of well-played World Series games. Pitcher Curt Schilling redefined the term "Red Sox" with blood on his right sock, indicating his living out the plot of The Natural, playing once again on a stitched-up right ankle tendon and lasting 6 innings. Now the Sox head to St Louis, where the Cardinals play hugely better than they play on the road.
