NEW YORK — Are the Red Sox going to have to pack up all that champagne and take it with them to Cleveland?Why, Shank of course - why else does he keep writing columns after Red Sox losses?
Waiting for the Red Sox to clinch the American League East is starting to feel like waiting for Yaz’s 3,000th hit, or Tim Wakefield’s 200th win. It’s like waiting to close on your dream home, or waiting for Larry Bird to pick up a check.
The Sox were pummeled in the Bronx Wednesday, 10-1, and so the Magic Number — which hasn’t moved since Sunday — remains stuck at two. Boston leads the division by 9½ games with 10 to play, but the Sox have managed to breathe life into a Yankees team here this week. They’ll have only one more chance to clinch on the Yankee lawn. And suddenly the idea of facing the Yanks in October does not sound so sweet. Who wants to be the new edition of the 2001 Mariners?
Also - the only time you're likely to see consecutive daily columns from Shank is after consecutive losses by one of the local pro sports teams.

What do you expect from a fraud who demands no last place teams but if they win its a fluke
