Totally agree that Buckner took more of the blame than he should.

Well, Mets - Dodgers is going to be fun. When Yamamoto doesn't have the yips, he looks untouchable. He might be the key to the series for the Dodgers.
LOL disagree that it was inevitable, what happened is they brought back Calvin Schiraldi. I will never forget when they flashed to Rice smiling in the dugout after the Sox went up 3-0. I felt pretty good about the game at that point too, curse or no curse.

Pretty evenly matched teams, lots of stars. Sox were not exactly hurting with Clemens, Boggs, Rice and Evans, and Baylor still capable as well.
