The weather taketh... the weather giveth

I guess the score is settled with God.

When rain washed away the last 3 1/2 innings of the 2-1 loss to the Marlins, I got mad at the weather.

Today, the wind pushed what might have been a bloop double by Nick Green into the cheapest walk off homer you will ever see.

And it doesn't matter if the wind hooks it around Pesky's Pole or he shot it over the wall, breaking someone's window and making them call 1-800-54-GIANT... it is the same result.

The Red Sox won the series and I'll update the tally.
