Ok. Game One is now nothing but a distant memory. Join Paul and I as we take a quick look back at Game One, but more importantly a look forward at Game Two as we call for the Wolf (Josh Beckett) to come clean things up in Anaheim.

All that and more on this episode of Fireside Chats after the jump…

New Poll Question: What do you expect out of Josh Beckett tonight? [more after the jump]

As often happens when the Red Sox venture out West for a playoff series (as often happens), there’s no more painful post to write than the one scheduled to hit the wires the morning following a late night start like we had in Game One of the ALDS – except of course the post following a game that saw the Red Sox hit their side of the Win Probability ledger only for one fleeting at bat the night prior.

That chart pretty well sums up the Red Sox offense all night against Angels starter John Lackey; flatline.
