Salon.com's King Kaufman in another moment of sports writing bliss:
"Bellhorn's fourth-inning homer was originally ruled in play. The ball had hit a fan in the front row and dropped back onto the warning track, but this was missed by left-field umpire Jim Joyce. And then Red Sox manager Terry Francona asked Jim with his eyes to ask again yes and then he asked the other umpires would they yes to say yes and first the umpires put their arms around each other yes and fans' hearts were going like mad and yes they said yes it was a home run yes. "
