jwgThis afternoon the Sox were playing the Astros's and the game was tied up in the ninth when it was time to go with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rsc to the theatre at the Gloucester Stage Company to see the Indian Wants the Bronx, an old Israel Horowitz one-act as well as two new shorties: A Mother's Love and Security. I checked my phone for the score just before the play started and then turned it off. I hate missing the end of critical games but the play must go on!
An hour and a half later when the plays were over I turned on my phone and checked the score. It was still tied up 2-2 at the beginning of the 14th inning. We went to the car to listen while finding a restaurant. l'Amante has turned into 197 E Main St so we parked near by and listened to the game. The Sox weathered a threat in the top of the 14th and in the bottom, a single by Walker, a surprise sacrifice bunt from Garciaparra (he'd had 3 doubles and a triple earlier in the game) which got Walker to 2nd and a nice grounder by Manny into the outfield scored Walker. And then we went to dinner having saved an 1 1/2 of agony while the Sox almost scored several times.
Dinner was good - I had cold pea soup, Robert had grilled Octopus, we both had Pork Tenderloin with gnocci and asparagus and beans, a glass of nice California Cabernet for each if us and we split a vanilla Creme Brule.
