Will Rays beat Red Sox in Game 6 at Tropicana field?

Game 2 and 5 were fun to watch. I am neither a fan of the Rays or Red Sox, but I am betting that Rays will clinch it in Game 6.

    Rays will win game 6. Red Sox fans are so delusional. They think that since they did it in '04 and '07 that it will happen again. This is not the same team as in other years. Plus they are facing Beckett who has been awful in the playoffs and who is not that same as last year. Not every team can win a series with 4 straight wins. Most series go on average about 6 games. The Rays are sending in there ace who has been terrific and is at home. Just remember that the Red Sox had to barely win by a run to force the next game. It's not like they won by ten. We have seen that the Rays are scoring between 7 and 13 runs since game 2. I believe the Rays will win with the home field advantage. Red Sox will lose and then I will be happy with all those Red Sox fans shut up.

    Yes and Game 7. And I'm not a Red Sox fan saying that. I personally don't like the Red Sox that much, although there's teams out there I dislike more. I actually like the Rays a lot. All I can say is the Red Sox got all the momentum back. Last year they came back 3-1 on an inexperienced team. Yes it was without Manny and six and seven were in Boston, but we all know Boston's capable of doing it?

    The Phillies are scared right now and all of you know it. Remember last season? Rockies were 21-1 before playing the Red Sox in the WS? The Phillies are 20-6 in their last 26. The Rockies were off like a week. A similar lay off the Phillies are getting right now. The Red Sox had to grind there way through the weekend and they were ready for that World Series.

    I think it's all going to depend on how Josh Beckett does in the first couple of innings. If he's pitching the way he has been, then it doesn't look so good for the Sox. But, if he's pitching back to form, then watch out. And knowing the stakes, I'm thinking he'll be pitching like the Josh Beckett we all knew and loved last October.

    This is going to be a really exciting game to watch.

    The Rays have the better pitching in game 6. Beckett has not been dominant this year. But the Rays blew a serious game Thursday and may have opened up the door they should have closed.

    Yankee fan who's seen it happen before!

    It all depends on Josh Beckett. He was very rusty in game 2 against the Rays. Hopefully, he throw a good game saturday. Also, if Boston can get some hits early in the game, I think they have a chance.

    Honestly, I think the Rays got too emotional when they lost tonights game. I'm thinking it might hurt their momentum a bit. But it's October and anything can happen in October, the Sox proved that tonight. I think it'll go to 7 games, Rays win it.

    Source(s): Neither a Red Sox or Rays fan.

    Yes, Red Sox had their last hurrah, just like The Dodgers in game 3 of the NLCS.
