WS Game 4 Bottom 6

Matt Holliday inexplicably pops to Papi on the first pitch. What's he thinking? He's down 3-0 and 2-0 for the World Series, and he swings at the first pitch! Amazing!
Helton's up. Ball one. Ball two, and three. The obligatory 3-0 strike is called. At 3-1, Helton slices one to left, and Manny is up to the task. Two down.
Garrett Atkins will try. Ball one. A big swing for strike one. Ball two, 2-1. Foul, 2-2. He works it full. Jon gives up his third walk of the evening, and Tito's headed to the mound. He makes the changes. Lester leaves at 92 pitches. Great effort for the kid!
Manny Delcarmen's headed in to pitch to Spilborghs. Ball one. Ball two. A fast strike down the middle, 2-1. Swinging strike two. Manny gets him swinging! Out of the inning with the lead intact.
2-0 Sox after 6! Nine outs to go.
