I'm not one to launch into poetic waxing and waning about the romanticism of baseball, and what it symbolizes to so many.

Leading the charge of course, is Nick Cafardo, who seems to … Continue reading Bobby V? Really?

The Red Sox will be in the World Series for the third time since 2004 as they will face the St. Louis Cardinals starting on Wednesday night.
