Ah, the Ed Armbrister interference game, which overshadowed the Red Sox' rally from a 5-1 deficit, highlighted by Dwight Evans' game-tying, two-run ninth-inning homer. You can read the gory details here.
For what it's worth, Bob Montgomery, longtime Red Sox backup catcher and color analyst of my youth, always thought home plate umpire Larry Barnett made the right call. He might be the only one in New England who feels that way. I wish I had a copy, but the New York Daily News' back page the next day said it was the wrong call. Can you imagine a New York paper criticizing a bad call against a Boston team now?
Tomorrow: Game 5.
