Coco Crisp drove in five RBI’s and Kason Gabbard earned his fourth victory of the season beating the Chicago White Sox (43-53) in a romping defeat 11-2. Crisp has hit .370 in his last 29 games and has driven in eighth RBI’s in his past two games hitting...

Coco Crisp and Julio Lugo combined for seven RBI’s, J.D. Drew had one RBI, but a bad call took away a three-run homer from Drew, and Josh Beckett earned his 13th win of the season in the 10-3 defeat over the Chicago White Sox (43-52). A four run fifth inning was...

Josh Beckett (12-3) pitched well enough to earn his 13th win throwing for 8 innings, giving up seven hits, two runs, two walks, and eight strikeouts, but it was not enough as the Boston Red Sox (55-36) only pushed across one lone run as Blue Jays rookie starter Jesse...

The last homerun any Boston Red Sox (55-35) fan had seen from David Ortiz at Fenway Park was on April 21st, Ortiz ended that drought in the first inning homering off of Dustin McGowan to right field in the 9-4 win over the Toronto Blue Jays (44-46). Ortiz’...

Tonight’s the All-Star game, but my mind is still on the Red Sox. After suffering through a 17-17 stretch dating to June 1, it’s become obvious that while the Sox are a talented team, they aren’t without their drawbacks. So how to best improve the...

Boston (53-33) was playing the wrong odds too many times and their luck finally ended and caught up with them in the bottom of the 13th. Ivan Rodriguez singled home the game winner off of Jonathan Papelbon, but the Red Sox flirted with disaster in the 10th and 11th...

The Boston Red Sox today optioned centerfielder Jacoby Ellsbury to the minor leagues. Ellsbury went six for 16, leaving his first major league stint at a .375/.444/.438 line, stealing one base and overall showing just why he is so highly-regarded. There has been lots...

Eric Hinske gave the Boston Red Sox (50-31) the extra cushion they needed with a three-RBI triple and Jacoby Ellsbury was 2-2 with two runs and two walks in the 7-3 win over the Texas Rangers (34-48). With the Red Sox on top 4-3 in the bottom of the fifth Hinske, who...

Well, June was a rough month. We ended the month at 12-13, a game below .500 … but no AL East foe had the stones to step up and take advantage. The Sox saw a lot of people flounder: Beckett, Cora, Lowell, Schilling, Youkilis, Lugo, Wily Mo, Timlin, Varitek,...
