I just got back from a neighborhood dinner. Living in Massachusetts, the group was very pro Red Sox and thoroughly enjoyed the top of the third inning as the Red Sox scored six runs. When Matsuzaka singled to drive in a run, you got the feeling the series was over.

The move of Ellsbury to the leadoff spot worked perfectly as he went 3 for 3 with two doubles off Fogg. He and Pedroia combined for five hits in six at bats, setting up the heart of the order.

Dice-K is having now problem with the high altitude so far, striking out four through three innings. Hawpe was one of those, his seventh in nine at bats. He's been a huge black hole in the middle of the series so far.

The good news for the Rockies is that this is Coors, and anything can happen.
