At least for now. J.D. Drew hit a grand slam in the bottom of the first inning giving Boston an early 4-0 lead and Curt Schilling was masterful in post season play yet again improving his record to 10-2 in the 12-2 win over the Cleveland Indians. Schilling carried the...

Man, another game for the ages from Josh Beckett. His performance has been truly astounding. Last night’s eight innings pitched, eleven strikeouts, one walk and one earned run on five hits simply added to what was already an impressive postseason resume. If the...

Kenny Lofton may be 40 years old but he is playing like a 25 year old superstar in the playoffs spark plugging the Cleveland Indians lineup. Lofton hit his first ALCS homerun, a two run shot, off of Daisuke Matsuzaka in the second inning and Cleveland never let the...

Check out Part III of Thoughts of the Fans on Tribe Report… This is the reason the Red Sox signed Daisuke Matsuzaka. Sure, the background intents and purposes were evident. The added revenue, ticket sales and overseas fanfare were obvious positive influences on...

So the honeymoon’s over. Prior to last night, this postseason had a charmed feeling to it. I was one of the many Red Sox leaping to foregone conclusions. I received an email informing me that I was not a winner of the World Series ticket lottery, so my friend...

After what was a back-and-forth game the whole night the Cleveland Indians broke open the 11th inning scoring 7 runs en route to a 13-6 victory over the Boston Red Sox tying the series at 1-1. Eric Gagne once again did not hold the fort down getting no outs and...

Game 1: Wednesday, October 3rd. One of the great things about playoff baseball is that it brings old friends together. Especially for fans that have left their home team

Greetings from the Big Apple. I’m on vacation right now but I was happy to set time aside for an article here at my old stomping grounds. Much has changed since I last wrote an article at Fire Brand. There’s plenty to be excited about with the Red Sox up...
