When #WorldSeries is tied 1-1, 16 of the last 18 Game 3 winners hoisted the trophy. The scene is set. Let’s play ball!
— MLB (@MLB) October 27, 2013
Joe Kelly, with 98 mph fastball, goes 1-2-3 in the first inning. Ellsbury K looking, Victorino 1-3, Pedroia 3-1. 11 pitches/8 strikes
— Kevin Thomas (@ClearTheBases) October 27, 2013
Jake Peavy (BOS): 0-3, 10.31 ERA (21 ER/18.1 IP) in 4 career postseason starts, highest ERA by starting pitcher in postseason history
— Baseball Tonight (@BBTN) October 27, 2013
Jake Peavy yesterday: "There's absolutely no excuses tomorrow night. This is what I've lived for my whole life"
— Evan Drellich (@EvanDrellich) October 27, 2013
Holliday singles to right. Carpenter scores. 1-0 Cardinals and after three batters only one Peavy got out is the one that gave himself up.
— SI MLB (@si_mlb) October 27, 2013
The @Cardinals are RIPPING the ball. RBI single for @Yadimolina04 makes it 2-0 and there's still only one out. #WorldSeries
— MLB (@MLB) October 27, 2013
Doubront up in the pen. If they go to him early tonight, there isn't much of a safety net for Buchholz tomorrow. @RedSox #WorldSeries
— Tom Caron (@TomCaron) October 27, 2013
DID SOMEBODY SAVE THE RECEIPT FOR PEAVY? HE NEEDS TO BE RETURNED.
— janice (@chestnuthell) October 27, 2013
Y’know, Middlebrooks used to pitch….

Is this the same #Cardinals defense that took the field in Game 1? I mean, they LOOK the same. Just, ya know, acting different. #WorldSeries

Stephen Drew in postseason: 4-for-43 #RedSox

Stephen Drew is the Erin Andrews of the #RedSox lineup. #4for43
— Obnoxious Boston Fan (@realOBF) October 27, 2013
Joe Kelly has a no-hitter through three. Somewhere, Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer are saying, "Careful."
— John Tomase (@jtomase) October 27, 2013
Peavy gets through the 3rd, thanks to a Holliday gift. See what I did there?
— Tom Caron (@TomCaron) October 27, 2013
Looks like Peavy settled down...for now. #RedSox #WorldSeries @RedSoxLife
— Conor Frederick (@ConorJF1016) October 27, 2013
Ellsbury sneaks a 7-hopper under Carpenter's glove to give the Sox their first hit/baserunner.
— Alex Speier (@alexspeier) October 27, 2013
I love these live in game interviews with players. It's nice break for the hectic action of the baseball game. #RedSox #WorldSeries
— Vick Reilly (@Vick_Reilly) October 27, 2013
Nava fans on the 7th pitch and Kelly leaps off the mound. Ortiz shakes his head.
— Pete Abraham (@PeteAbe) October 27, 2013
I know it's Molina running, but it's Ellsbury in the field. Could have scored. Still, bases loaded, no outs
— Kevin Thomas (@ClearTheBases) October 27, 2013
Huge escape by Peavy, who wiggles out of a bases-loaded, no out jam -- with help from Jose Oquendo.
— Sean McAdam (@Sean_McAdam) October 27, 2013
Wow!...some dam grit right there by peavy!
— michael flynn (@flynn985) October 27, 2013
Xander Bogaerts' first hit of the #WorldSeries is a leadoff triple in fifth inning. Momentum continuing to lean toward #RedSox
— Scott Lauber (@ScottLauber) October 27, 2013

— Only In Boston (@OnlyInBOS) October 27, 2013
4th time in 35 career postseason games that Ellsbury has whiffed multiple times.
— Alex Speier (@alexspeier) October 27, 2013
Peavy's final line: 4 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 4 K. 67 percent of 64 pitches for strikes. Felix Doubront will pitch bottom of the fifth.
— SI MLB (@si_mlb) October 27, 2013
Doubront fends off the Cardinals and the HP umpire that inning. #RedSox #DoubleDuty
— Austin Eich (@Eich_AJ) October 27, 2013
With Victorino on first, Matheny goes to his bullpen in the top of the 6th. Choate to face Ortiz. #WinToday
— Boston Red Sox (@RedSox) October 27, 2013
Ortiz singles off Choate, Victorino goes to third. Tying run 90 feet away for Boston. #worldseries
— SI MLB (@si_mlb) October 27, 2013
And that decision backfires. Nava lines first pitch into left field to tie it up.
— John Tomase (@jtomase) October 27, 2013
What a beautiful swing from Daniel Nava. That AB shows why he should’ve been in the lineup a lot earlier.
— Joon Lee (@iamjoonlee) October 27, 2013
Xander GIDP. Sadness.
— OverTheMonster (@OverTheMonster) October 27, 2013
Felix does the job. Heading to the 7th we have a tie ball game. Don't forget what Jake Peavy did in the 4th to keep #RedSox in it. #WinToday

Yes Stephen Drew is finally out of the game! Everybody celebrate! #RedSox #WorldSeries

Tazawa with runners on...oh joy! *gouging eyes out*
— Austin Eich (@Eich_AJ) October 27, 2013
Holliday beats Tazawa with the two-run double. 4-2 Cardinals, six outs away from a 2-1 series lead.
— Tim Britton (@TimBritton) October 27, 2013
@GlobeChadFinn Red Sox traded Iglesias.
— Tony Branco (@TonyRBranco) October 27, 2013
Should've left Doubront in. Not even saying that in retrospect. Been saying it since he took him out. Cardinals can't hit LHP. Dumb move.
— Jared Carrabis (@Jared_Carrabis) October 27, 2013
A full playoff share to C. Beltran's arm armor!
— Old Hoss Radbourn (@OldHossRadbourn) October 27, 2013
This inning should put to rest any talk about Napoli/Bogaerts being the left side of your infield tomorrow.
— John Tomase (@jtomase) October 27, 2013
Jay flies out to strand runners as Ellsbury & Victorino narrowly avoid collision. Cardinals up 4-2 after 7 w/ Martinez & Rosenthal looming.

Slow roller to SS serves same purpose as bunt, moving both runners into scoring position.

I still dont know how this #Red Sox team does this... Seems like they should be losing 6-2 ... And BOOM just like that it's 4-4 top 8th !
— Dan Plesac (@Plesac19) October 27, 2013
The Cardinals have fired all their bullpen bullets. The Red Sox still have their best bullpen bullet in the chamber.
— Scott Candage (@ScottCandage) October 27, 2013
Brandon Workman in to pitch for the Red Sox. They still have Dempster, Morales, and Uehara.
— Jesse Spector (@jessespector) October 27, 2013
One down... Let's go, Workman!
— Conor Frederick (@ConorJF1016) October 27, 2013
Kolten Wong pulls a one-out single to right and the Cardinals have the go-ahead run aboard in the eighth.

Red Sox IBB Beltran on 3-1 after the steal. I'd at least have seen if he squared...
— Tim Britton (@TimBritton) October 27, 2013
Nobody warming up. Workman live or die.
— Pete Abraham (@PeteAbe) October 27, 2013
Workman handles it. Fly ball to left.

Very confused by Farrell letting Workman hit. Don't you use closer in a tie game on the road in the bottom of the ninth? #Cardinals #RedSox
— Josh Handler (@JoshHandler) October 27, 2013
Red Sox go 1-2-3 in the ninth as we continue to scour Busch Stadium for Mike Napoli. Red Sox 4, Cardinals 4. Adams, Molina and Craig, hmm?
— Big League Stew (@bigleaguestew) October 27, 2013
To the bottom of the 9th. @Cardinals send up 4-5-6 against Brandon Workman on @MLBONFOX. #WorldSeries

#Redsox haven't won an extra innings World Series game on the road since Game 1 1946 WS vs. #Cardinals
— Chris Hogan (@HoganReports) October 27, 2013
After Adams strikes out, Molina gets ahead 3-0, takes 2 close strikes, the fouls off ball four high and singles into RF. Craig up. Uehara?
— SI MLB (@si_mlb) October 27, 2013
Craig hitting for Rosenthal and, yep, Uehara is coming into game. #redsox #stlcards
— Joel Sherman (@Joelsherman1) October 27, 2013
Allen Craig ropes a double to left off Red Sox closer Koji Uehara, men on second and third with one out.
