Dotel on for the 8th...

He takes care of Kinsler with a comebacker...he threw two sliders to start it...ONE OUT...

Here is Elvis Andrus...do no harm, Elvis...

Strike one from Dotel...

Strike two from Dotel...

Strike THREE...DOTEL WAS SO NASTY THIS POSTSEASON! Gonna miss that, too...but see, I have the DVDs and that is what we are watching right now.

Here comes Arthur Rhodes into his FIRST WORLD SERIES! His first opponent...Hosh Jamilton...Joe Buck said that. Arthur Rhodes lost a 5 year old son. Tragedy is everywhere people. Tim Tebow is not special.

Does a player like Rhodes or Bengie Molina get both a WS share from the winner and the loser? That seems unfair...

Rhodes has worked the count full on Hamilton...this is still a one run game...this is huge...

Hamilton hits it one handed into center...And he cards 'pen does it again...

Inning OVER!

Bottom of the 8th.

Berkman to lead off. He's still got it.

Berkman tests Kinsler...and THERE's THE ARCH AGAIN (Sighting #2? That's it?)...AND BERKMAN can still dig out an infield hit!!!

Descalso, our 2Bman next season...

bunts Berkman over...it is perfect. These are guys who can execute, when properly managed.

Heeeeeeeere's YADI!

Fouls away strike one...takes ball two...

Broken bat ground out moves Berkman to 3rd...

Punto up with 2 down...Motte warming in the 'pen to face Young, Beltre and Cruz...

Strike one swinging on Punto on a wicked slider...Feldman still in there...big run at 3rd with 2 out...

Feldman works from the windup...high ball one...

Punto Rakes it FOUL down the line...strike two...

inside 2-2...slowing down...

Schumacker on deck...

Punto strikes out looking...good work by Feldman...
