"Jonathan Papelbon, the combination closer/travel agent of your Boston Red Sox, made the announcement at about 11:19 last night: Get JetBlue [JBLU] on the phone right now and book those flights for Tampa International Airport.

"I expect Tampa is going to win (tonight) and I expect us to win (tonight)," Papelbon said, this after closing out the Red Sox' 8-7 victory over the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards.

"That's just the way the season's going to be," he said. "That's the way it's going to be throughout the postseason, that's the way tomorrow's going to be, and that's the way the final game against Tampa is going to be.""
