Well, the Red Sox broke it open late and cruised to a 9-1 victory, sweeping the Angels and making sure that they were headed to their second ALCS in four years. Schilling avoided hurting his foot now and is now 9-2 with a 1.93 ERA in the postseason, numbers that will...

This comes to you as the first column of Fire Brand as the home of the DIVISION CHAMPION RED SOX! He’s on fire. Big Papi, who nabbed four hits in four outings yesterday with a walk, had another successful night last night, nabbing three hits and a homer. Without...

J. D. Drew was 3-4, David Ortiz smacked a two-run homerun and Curt Schilling pitched for 6 innings earning his 9th victory as the Red Sox beat the Oakland Athletics 7-3. With New York losing in extra innings to the Devil Rays and the Red Sox win the magic number is...

Here’s a curious case. There are 16 major league pitchers on the active roster. I can only select one who should not make the postseason roster: Devern Hansack, who has pitched 7.2 IP on the year so far this year. Those innings came May 8, 19 and September 8....

What do you want me to say? That I’m giving up on this team? That we have no shot? That we’re done? Never. We’ve come this far, and we’re giving up on this team? Give me a break. This is where the true fans come through. Either you believe in...

Okay, I wouldn’t say “too close for comfort,” but after last night I have an uneasy feeling. Last night’s game was just a lackluster performance all the way around. Tim Wakefield’s knuckler didn’t have a lot of bite, resulting in a...
by zach hayes | Sep 17, 2007 | Curt Schilling, Eric Hinske, Joba Chamberlain, New York Yankees
The Red Sox had a golden opportunity to accomplish two important goals tonight. One, they could have gotten to the prince of the world, the newest phenom and collective wet dream in New York right now, Joba Chamberlain. A ferocious at-bat from Eric Hinske led off a...
