Sox Clinch Division Title

The Red Sox celebrated in raucous fashion last night after winning their first Eastern Division Title in ten years behind Dice-K Matsusake's 8 inning 2 run performance and Jonathon Papelbon's 37th save. The game crowd stayed around as well as those watching on TV to see the outcome of the Yankees Orioles game which the Orioles won in fine baseball fashion with a squeeze play in the 10th, giving the Eastern Division Title to the Rod Sox.

The champagne flowed (or rather sprayed) in copious amounts as fans, players, owners, even the cops got a dose of the bubbly.

Last night Daisuke pitched 8 strong innings an Papi hit his 35th home run and his 52nd two-bagger.

Now the Sox are playing for the best won lost record and are tied with Cleveland at 95 - 65, with two game yet to play. With the best record comes home field advantage in the playoffs. Their first opponent? The Los Angeles Angels in a 5 game series. If the Sox win that series they the will play for the American League Pennant.

Congratulations Red Sox on your Eastern Division Title.
