Sox win, face Indians for pennant Sunday night

Red Sox right fielder J.D. Drew, who did little this year to live up to his five-year, $70 million contract, belted a first-inning grand slam and added a third-inning run-scoring single as the Red Sox hammered the Indians, 12-2, in Game 6 of the American League Championship Series.

Curt Schilling, perhaps the best big-money pitcher in baseball history, scattered six hits over seven innings for the win.
Drew helped the Red Sox dig themselves out of a huge hole; they were trailing in the series, 3-1, and now the two teams will play a winner-take-all game tonight (8:23, TV: Ch. 25, 64) to see who will play the Colorado Rockies in the World Series.

Daisuke Matsuzaka will get the ball for the Red Sox tonight; Jake Westbrook will go for the Indians.

"We get to play tomorrow," said Red Sox manager Terry Francona. "We get to play a Game 7. We'll strap it on and I'm sure they will, too."
