We weren't done yet. We feel we can score three runs at any time.

africa beat game guys maybe runs scenarios score shown south
We were shown all the scenarios after the game and we were kind of in awe. A lot of guys thought it was runs scored, so we thought maybe we'd have to go out and try and beat South Africa by a lot of runs. But it's runs allowed, and the South Africa score does not count. That's strange, too.
dictates hitting scoring season
We had opportunities; we just couldn't capitalize. That's the most aggravating thing about this game. When you're not hitting and scoring runs, it dictates how well your season goes.

We don't care about how we get there, as the East winner or the wild card, we just want to get to the playoffs. It's the most important thing. We're going to be gunning for these teams and this is the time of year for the Red Sox to show that we can shine.
care
We don't care how we get there, ... just as long as we're there.
