IMHO We didn't steal anything - This has more to do with inept play on the sox part and lazy play giving the game away. Neither team executed well in the late innings, and the Sox (more specifically Abreu) made two blunders on one play to give the game away (which we in turn tried our hardest to give right back the next inning). Had Abreu played the ball and not go for any heroics there is a good chance its a tie game going into the 9th. Even if he made the same initial play, if he had simply run the ball back in instead of making a throw that wasn't necessary (something EVERY infielder is supposed to learn in little league) the inning continues tied at 1.
