On a clear and chilly September night in Boston, the Red Sox and Rays began their final series of the 2014 season. Starters Clay Buchholz and Alex Cobb held the line for their respective clubs for most of the game, with both starters pitching into the 7th inning....

The Boston Red Sox went 4-2 over the last week and are now 60-76 with 26 games remaining including Monday’s contest against the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday. The pitching has done well and the offense has scored enough runs to keep on winning despite Dustin Pedroia...

The Boston Red Sox went 0-7 over the last week and are now 56-74, which is a season-high 18 games below .500. The team has to win 14 of its final 32 contests in order to be better than the 2012 season. The team has improved offensively with the addition of Yoenis...

Fifty-one years ago, I went to my first Red Sox game. Many presidents, fashions and shortstops later, it’s still nice to visit home again… We boarded the Green Line at the Arlington Station a couple Thursdays ago, 90 minutes before a 7:00 game with...

(Note: This post is kind of a fusion of Firebrand’s dormant, but fantastic Advanced Scout series and personal narrative) Red Sox Nation is strewn vast and wide. We can be found in nearly every neighborhood of every city in every state. Each of us has his or...

The Boston Red Sox started off an 8-game road trip with a series loss to the St. Louis Cardinals before nearly sweeping the Los Angeles Angels over the weekend. With only two games left before heading back to the confines of Fenway Park, the Red Sox look like a team...

The Boston Red Sox had an unsuccessful road trip with a 2-5 record against the Toronto Blue Jays and Tampa Bay Rays over the past seven days. The offense was stagnant at times after a 14-run outburst last Monday night at Rogers Centre. The pitching was pretty solid,...

The Boston Red Sox finished up a 10-game road trip with two straight wins against the New York Yankees Saturday and Sunday. After going 2-6 through the first eight games, the Red Sox won a road series for the first time in the month to end the month of June. The Red...

The Boston Red Sox are still a long way away from catching the Toronto Blue Jays in the AL East with a 31-38 record through 69 contests. There are eight teams between them and the second Wild Card spot as well as a 5.5 game difference. Sure, there are still 93 games...

Thankfully, April is over (although May has been far from kind to us so far). The Red Sox ended the opening month of the 2014 season with a sub .500 record at 13-14. Now, the team that came into this season wanting to “Turn the Page” is heading into a new...
