So the Yankees score a franchise playoff record 19 runs. Sure the Red Sox manage 8. But they also go through 6 pitchers, including their Game 4 starter (unless it was a 'bluff' as some people are claiming). They gave up 22 hits, including 4 home runs. The Red Sox have been outscored 32-16 through three games. The sun is clearly setting on the 2004 Red Sox.
My question is: is the current stage of the rivalry, (that is, a competitive one) on its way to being over too? This was supposed to be the year right? Boston's pitching staff was better, that had huge bats, the stupid manager was gone. NY had a soft staff, A-Rod wasn't going to show up, and everyone was under pressure from the Boss.
What happened? What happens now? Where does Boston go from here?

If you want to tell me how the ALCS isn't over, I'm speaking too soon, feel free. I'd love to hear it.

But please, answer the question too.
