Boston comes back from seven runs down to win Game 5


One of the best playoff games I've ever seen. It ended with Kevin Youkilis hitting a walk off home run after the Sox were down by seven runs in the seventh inning. For you soccer fans out there, this sends the series back to Tampa.

Keep your vistas of the Charles River, the rectangular monolith of the Prudential Center sparkling from the Back Bay and the tree-lined pathways crackling with vibrant shades of orange and red. The most beautiful sight in the entire city of Boston, at least as far as the Red Sox were concerned, was a battered yellow "4" sliding into place on the Green Monster on Thursday night. Four runs -- three of them on David Ortiz's towering bash -- and there was a renewal of October life at Fenway Park.
