Dating back to the final two games of the Chicago White Sox series, the 2013 World Series Champion Boston Red Sox have now won seven of their last eight games. While this is all well and good, I unfortunately now believe it has fostered a sense of hope among Red Sox...

Have the Red Sox found the momentum to resurrect a dead season? Probably not, but the team did win their second consecutive walk-off contest on Thursday. Jon Lester toed the rubber for the Red Sox and was superb, allowing just one run while striking out 11 over 7...
