LOL, we agree again. Wow, if this keeps happening people may begin to talk Mark!! lol.....
I was surprised that Pedro even started the 8th inning since I figured Little would give him the hook. Actually I had no problem with him starting the 8th since Pedro was the horse that got them there, but I told my buddy that was watching the game with me that if he allowed even one guy to reach base I would yank him. After Jeter hit the double (on an 0 and 2 pitch no less) I would have pulled Pedro. At that time if they would have pulled Pedro the Sox would have had a 3 run lead with 1 out and a Yankee runner on second. No big deal. But for Grady Little to sit there and watch Pedro get yacked for 4 consecutive hits was unreal. He had a good arm in the pen in Mike Timlin. He should have used him. If I was a Sox fan I'd want Grady Little strung up by his thumbs.
