POSTGAME: Garko provides bulletin-board material

BOSTON -- Cleveland first baseman Ryan Garko may have utwittingly provided the Red Sox with extra motivation for Game Six.

Garko was quoted in a Cleveland newspaper two days ago in the Chronicle-Telegram, a Cleveland-area newspaper saying ''the champagne tastes just as good on the road as it does at home.''

The reference, of course, was to the celbratory champagne that winning teams drink in postgame parties.

Someone with the Red Sox took notice. The quote was posted on the back of the Red Sox clubhouse door yesterday for all to see -- just in case incentive was lacking in Game Six.
