Is Papi Hurt?

Drew about to get hot.

TRIVIA: Morse Code

What is the message inscribed in Morse Code on the manual scoreboard in left field at Fenway?

Are the Sox starters as bad as they seem?

At what point can the Red Sox wait to address their AL-worst starting corps (or should I say corpse?), second-last in the bigs with a 5.81 ERA? Even the Yankees are faring better with a 5.64 ERA.

It's a testament to how good the offense and bullpen is that the Sox are hanging around first place. Once the starters start regressing to the norm, the club will be that much more stronger.

BOS 4, LAA 3: Triple

The Red Sox didn't want to be the only Boston team to lose tonight.
