No fluke!

Sox win big with lights-out pitching from Garland, who's showing that his 18 regular season wins were no accident...and this on a night that the Angels had every reason to want to win, after the Game 2 controversy.

I'll be the first to admit the Sox got a lucky break in game 2, but there is something to be said for Pierzynski's efforts, to try and make a play though the game looked to be all but over. Isn't it the moments of unexpected success that we most savor? And ones we should be most grateful for...

Hey, we got a gift in Game 2's win. Game 3 was just evidence that the gift was not totally undeserved...

Go Sox!
