only 17 pitchers used in last night's game

The Red Sox used nine; the Yankees used eight.

Loved seeing Miley pick off Headley in the bottom of the fifth.

Loved seeing Leon cut down Gardner trying to steal in the bottom of the eighth.  Loved seeing Wright pick off Gardner in the bottom of the 17th.

Loved seeing the Red Sox take an early lead. Loved seeing them build it to 3-0. Loved Ortiz hitting yet another extra-inning homer to win the game.  Oops.  Did not love another Yankee going deep on another Red Sox knuckleballer in extras. Fortunately, just a one-run homer.

Loved seeing the Red Sox take the lead THREE TIMES in extra innings.  Especially loved them holding it the third time.  That would quite a double play by Bogaerts and Pedroia in the bottom of the 19th.
