Westbrook-winning pitcher of game 6
Jake Westbrook made his second appearance last night in the Cardinals 11th inning win over the Rangers in game 6 of the World Series. Westbrook faced 4 batters, allowed only one hit and was tagged as the winning pitcher.
Earlier reports had Westbrook scheduled as the game 7 starter tonight. I don't know if that has changed yet or not.

Clemson vs Georgia Tech
I was a little disappointed to see Boise State in front of Clemson in this week's AP poll. Boise State struggled against Air Force this past Saturday while Clemson rolled up 59 points over UNC and 56 against Maryland last week. I admit that the Tigers' defense is in need of improvement but the pollsters placing Boise State above Clemson was just really strange.
Anyway, speaking of Clemson's defense, I am concerned about the Georgia Tech game. Tech has a high powered offense and uses that triple option-which Clemson struggled with this season against Wofford. The Tigers have allowed too many points this year. Offensively the Tigers could roll up points on anyone they face. I figure it will be a close game on Saturday night in Atlanta but will also be a high scoring game.
I think it will come down to who has the ball last and this game will be close til late into the fourth quarter. I don't have a good feeling about this one. Clemson's struggles on defense has me thinking that this might be the end of the Tigers' win streak.
In 2000 Clemson entered the Georgia Tech game 8-0 and ranked number 3 in the nation. The Tigers and Jackets exchanged leads several times before Tech scored a winning touchdown with 7 seconds left.
I hope I'm wrong and I am hoping for a Tiger win. A win would maybe help Clemson earn some respect. People are still waiting for Clemson to fall apart like past Tiger teams have done in the past. I think Clemson has proven that they are a very good football team and are past the collapse stage of things at this point. But as weeks go on and Clemson keeps winning, I just wonder where it all will end as those Tiger collapses of old have me in a negative state of mind. I think if Clemson can come away with a win over Tech - the Tigers will stand a very good chance of finishing unbeaten. Still the defense needs to improve. Clemson allowed 38 points against UNC and 45 against Maryland in the past two weeks. A performance like that against Tech will have Clemson out of the ranks of the unbeaten.
My prediction--hope I am 100 percent wrong::: Tech by 4 (close all the way). Prove me wrong Tigers!!!
