The Red Sox have a shot to end the Rays’ season once and for all today. Wouldn’t that make Monday oh so much better if they did? You bet it will.
- Boston has looked dominating in the two games so far, and the scariest thing is that they might not even be firing on all cylinders just yet. (In Game 2, Red Sox prove to be at height of their powers)
- Don’t have time to watch recap videos of Game 2? Then here’s a plethora of GIFs to help expedite your search for highlights. (Red Sox’ ALDS Game 2 victory in GIFs)
- The majority of the summer was a lost few months for Clay Buchholz. Now that’s he’s healed and hurling, he’ll look to close out the Rays today and put the Sox in the ALCS. (Back where he belongs)
- The other teams need to keep a close eye on David Ortiz. If he catches fire now – which it certainly looks like he’s doing – then he’ll be nigh unstoppable. (Red Sox Slugger David Ortiz Reintroduces Himself To October)
- If there’s anything that the Red Sox have looked superb at so far, their team defense would have to be it. It’s looked excellent in the series. (Red Sox defense sets them apart)
- Everyone always talks about pivotal games/series that the Red Sox must win to show that they have a pulse. Well, look no further than mid-April for Boston. (Camaraderie became a big factor in Red Sox’ reversal)
- Don’t take it out on us just because you weren’t good, David Price. (David Price apologizes for criticizing “nerds” on Twitter)
Big Papi is still watching it 36 hours later.
