I have no idea if it was intentional or not, I don't see the reason it would be but it was kind of weird that it went to the same spot on two consecutive pitches.

Yeah, I would have been more pissed if that Sox player was called safe. Sometime late in the game a tagged runner was called safe at Third when it was clear that he was OUT. I forget which of these Sox players it was but the moment it happened every yankee fan started chanting "Out, Out, Out, Out, Out, Out, Out Out," And finally he was called out. It was at the moment when Terry came out and started arguing about the call and got thrown out himself.All in all I couldn't wish for a better game. First I get to see Joba and see my first Red Sox game then I get to see them sweep the Red Sox. And this was the best of all in my opinion I was up in the N Section in the tier in the second inning until a couple Boston fans with very strong Boston accents come up to me and ask me to trade seats with one of their friends so they could sit together. He had been sitting in the A section. That was a huge improvement for me to see the game better.
