It often happens that those types of players take longer to get in - sportwriters wake up and say "of course, how did we miss that?!".

There is a huge and sad irony around Buckner- he had an outstanding series in addition to playing injured - most people have forgotten that. Shiraldi contributed significantly to the root cause of the problem - he should have been pulled - he was wild with no placement- his wild pitch advanced the runner to third ....and the rest his history.

As a Boston fan, 86 was bad enough - however 2003 pennant race not pulling Pedro against the Yanks was worse.....I have a mantra when I get depressed thinking about it - it goes:

TIMLIN IN THE 8TH, WILLIAMSON IN THE 9TH, TIMLIN IN THE 8TH, WILLIAMSON IN THE 9TH.

...if you say this 100 times slowly, you begin to feel better.
