So, I guess Garrett Anderson doing absolutely nothing at the plate and Chone Figgins treating ground balls like their covered in Anthrax is all a part of MLB's master plan for a Sox-MFY ALCS?
Let's look at it in its truest sense: the Angels are banged up right now, their pitching isn't that solid, and they aren't making routine plays. Anytime a team gives another team more than 27 outs, they're more than likely going to lose. With the exception of Schilling's throw to first and Molina's pop-fly single, the Sox have played nearly mistake-free baseball.
And if we're talking about the Angel pitchers getting squeezed, Pedro and Co. had the same strike zone all night. The difference was, Pedro adjusted to it and made the pitches he needed.
