In 2005 I remember watching the best Red Sox-MFY pitching duel of the decade short of the famous Pedro vs. Celemns matchup in 2000. One of the pitchers was to be expected, the Big Eunuch. The other one, not as much, the elder statesman Tim Wakefield. Wake pitched a complete game three-hit loss, giving up only a solo shot to HGHiambi.

Well, now it’s 2008, and payback’s a bitch. This time Wake held the Big Eunuch’s team scoreless, while the Eunuch couldn’t slither out of enough jams to save his ugly mug. And just to add insult to the loss, Kevin Cash CRUSHED a 3-run homer to put the game out of reach for the snakes. Now that’s the team I remembered that plays at Fenway.
