Will The A.L. East Soon Be Out Of Reach?
The Rays are in Wait 'Til Last Year mode, the Jays have come back to earth, and the O's as usual are six feet under the earth. Looks like another Red Sox vs. Yanks dogfight for the East, as both are in a virtual tie going into action this afternoon. Not so bad for a … Continue reading Will The A.L. East Soon Be Out Of Reach?
Sox Out In The Wild
The Red Sox uncorked a modern record tying six wild pitches last night, but ultimately it wasn't the reason for their 4-2 loss to the Twins, giving up 13 hits and five walks was probably more responsible. Amalie Benjamin has a look at the wild night behind the plate for George Kottaras, who at times had … Continue reading Sox Out In The Wild

Book Review – It Was Never About The Babe

Lester Falters Again in Loss to Twins
So maybe Jon Lester should be the one moved to the bullpen when John Smoltz or Clay Buchholz are deemed ready to move into the rotation. OK, that's probably not going to happen, but Lester, who had been the ace of the Red Sox staff last year, has struggled mightily in 2009. His woes continues … Continue reading Lester Falters Again in Loss to Twins

Are You Ready For Some Football?
I am. We have to give (Boston's own) Peter King credit for scoring the first extensive interview with Tom Brady since the Patriots' All-World quarterback was lost for the season on opening day last September. In the story, (Tom Brady is Back ) posted on SI.com, we see clearly that #12 has lost none of the fire … Continue reading Are You Ready For Some Football?
Papelbon, Sox Hold On Against Twins
Michael Silverman has the Sox catching a break yesterday with Joe Mauer out of the lineup for the Twins. However, the Minnesota catcher entered the game as a pinch hitter in the ninth, and bombed a two run homer off closer Jonathan Papelbon to make the score 6-5 Boston. Papelbon retired the next batter and the Red … Continue reading Papelbon, Sox Hold On Against Twins
