Two days ago Shank grabbed the steering wheel and hijacked the bandwagon of Red Sox Nation. After Game 3, he's
not so sure anymore:
What once seemed certain for the Red Sox is now in doubt
Need I remind you of one columnist who, a mere two days ago, was all but providing that certainty?
LOS ANGELES – It was the longest game in World Series history.
It lasted 18 innings, consuming seven hours and 20 minutes.
And it may have seriously pivoted things in this suddenly-fascinating 2018 World Series. The Dodgers rallied from almost certain October death in the bottom of the 13th Friday night/Saturday morning and went on to beat the Red Sox on Max Muncy’s leadoff homer in the bottom of the 18th.
Los Angeles’s 3-2 victory ended at 3:30 Eastern Daylight Time.
“We could have put them away and we didn’t,’’ admitted Red Sox manager Alex Cora.
And all we can ask is . . . why?
From there, Shank engages in the usual second guessing of a manager whose balls he was licking in the previous weeks and conveniently reminds you multiple times of this being the anniversary of the Bill Buckner game. This guy did a complete 180 degree turn in one game / two days - he's completely shameless.

Like I said he is such a fraud
Not a fraud at all. Many fans questioned whether the momentum in the Series had swung to the old Codgers. But Cora's brilliant team breakfast meeting and Chris Sale's stunning Ortiz-like foul-mouthed pep talk/rant turned that back around on the...dime-ond.
