Dominican slugger David Ortiz has done it again, keeping the Boston Red Sox full of hope in baseball’s American League playoffs. The Sox came back from a 3-0 start in the best-of-seven series to win the next two games. Ortiz’s hit in the 14th inning of yesterday’s game against the New York Yankees turned him into what everyone was calling the NY Yankees “daddy” or “savior”. Boston Globe highlights that the hit ended the game with a 5-4 Boston victory. The day before, Ortiz himself had cracked a home run to win game 4 at 1:22 yesterday morning. The Boston Globe reports that “no baseball team has survived a 3-0 series deficit.” The Boston Red Sox sends ace pitcher Curt Schilling to the box.
