Let's Do the Time Warp Again, Pedro Martinez edition

UPI tells us something we didn't know about Boston's 4-3 win over the Rays on Sunday:

Jonathan Papelbon closed out the game by striking out three consecutive batters in the ninth after the first two hitters had reached base safely. Papelbon earned his eighth save while Pedro Martinez (3-0) got the win in relief in the rubber match of the three-game series.

Via Red Sock, who has a screen capture in case UPI finally realizes what year this is, although that might be doubtful given that the story's been up for more than a day now.

I just wanted to add that

I just wanted to add that Papelbon was AMAZING in that game. He looked genuinely pissed off he lets the first two guys on and basically said "enough is enough". He was throwing fire out there.
