david ortiz just made miggy look like usain bolt. he hit a comebacker DP ball. pitcher turned and threw to the shortstop covering second. he stepped on the bag and then did like 3 separate square dance moves before throwing to first - and beat ortiz to the bag by 15 feet. sox got 2 insurance runs in the top of the 8th to go up 6-3, going to the bottom of the 9th now.
