Nightmare in Baltimore
Baltimore's Edgar Allan Poe couldn't have come up with a more fiendish nightmare than what the Red Sox bullpen went through last night. Entrusted with a 10-1 lead, the relief corps brought back memories of the early season 2003 Gasoline Alley Gang. All we needed was Bob Lobel sitting on the set of WBZ with … Continue reading Nightmare in Baltimore
Lester is Too Much For O’s
Jon Lester continued his career dominance of the Baltimore Orioles, pitching seven shutout innings last night to lead the Red Sox to a 4-0 win. Lester is now 8-0 lifetime against Baltimore. J.D.
