Late postgame show cancellations

Well, I don't think anyone expected that, huh?
Gavin Floyd and Ted Lilly were both amazing, and these three crosstown games have been pretty good for the most part. Game 1 was very very anticlimactic purely based on the fact that the Stanley Cup victory celebration was still running wild around the town, but both teams provided some unusual offense, and the Sox prevailed off of Wells just a bit more. I didn't see much of that game, so I can't provide any in-depth Steve Stone-like analysis (plus I really don't want Lou do go off on me for doing so ^_~).
Yesterday's game was a bit better pitching-wise, and I knew it would be a good matchup considering how surprisingly good Silva has been this year and how good Buehrle is against the NL in general. The Sox held their lead and Bobby came in to save the day, and although he did give up 1 run, i'm glad he came through when we needed him.
Today was...very weird. I didn't expect the no hitters to go that far, and once Gavin gave up that first hit to Soriano, I just hoped to God that the Sox would get a hit of their own, so as to not have to go through the agony of hearing about it from the Cubs fans of the world. Luckily, Juan Pierre was the man. and where Shawn says he never gets on base, he sure did get on base in the top of the 9th. I thought we had a chance to win, but it turns out that walking Rios to get to Paulie was a good idea after all.
