The weekend was not kind to the defending World Champs. After dropping the opening game of the series on Thursday, Boston took game 2 on Friday thanks to a well pitched game by Jon Lester and a three run bomb by Grady Sizemore. However Saturday and Sunday’s...

The Boston Red Sox may have finished the week with a 3-4 record, but it could have been a lot worse had it not been for the heroics of David Ortiz on Wednesday evening and the ace Jon Lester stepping up once again. The Red Sox starters have struggled, but the real...

So I’m kicking back on my iMac the other day, exploring a treasure trove of old MLB playoff games recently uploaded to YouTube. Game One of the 1990 ALCS between Oakland and the Red Sox looks intriguing, with Dave Stewart facing off at Fenway against Roger Clemens. It...

When the Red Sox and Yankees meet, the stories usually write themselves. Whether it’s a big play, an extra innings marathon, or a close contest, there is always something to talk about the next day. Thursday’s game was no exception, as Michael Pineda and...

Not everything has gone smoothly for the Red Sox during their 3-5 start to the season. They’ve made some uncharacteristic mistakes in the field, lost a couple games thanks to a leaky bullpen, and—perhaps most frustrating of all—been woeful as a team at the...

Fresh off their first Fenway Park win of the season, the Red Sox and Rangers squared off in game 2 of the series on Tuesday night. For his second straight start, Red Sox hurler Felix Doubront was not sharp and lasted just 2.2 innings, allowing 5 runs. The Red Sox...

The Red Sox picked up their first win at Fenway Park this season. John Lackey toed the rubber and pitched 7 dominate innings of 1 run baseball, striking out 5 and walking just 1. Jackie Bradley was Boston’s offensive standout of the night. The rookie center...

It was certainly a rough weekend in Red Sox Nation. Boston began their first home stand of the 2014 season with an inter-league series against the Milwaukee Brewers. But after collecting their 2013 World Series rings on Friday, it was all down hill from there. The Red...
