It didn’t take long for game one of the World Series to quickly transform into the Madison Bumgarner show on Tuesday night. The Giants left-hander continued his torrid postseason stretch by tossing seven innings of one run baseball, allowing just three hits and...

I can still picture him in my head, crouched in that unusual batting stance, uncoiling to lash a line drive into the outfield or drive a ball into the seats. Jeff Bagwell put up tremendous offensive numbers during his 15 year major league career, numbers that should...

Josh Beckett got roughed for five runs in his season debut and the Toronto Blue Jays completed the sweep winning 7-4. Vernon Wells and Frank Thomas went yard in the win for the Jays in the win. Vernon’s dinger sent Beckett packing after 4.2 innings pitched with...

Clay Buchholz had a decent start compared to his last few surrendering three runs on six hits over five innings with seven strikeouts, but leave it to the Red Sox Pen to blow it open again.

The Toronto Blue Jays are being picked as the team to upset the Red Sox and the Yankees. At least Bob Ryan thinks so. I think otherwise and here is why. Vernon Wells is not the same player of old and the pitching has to stay healthy which I do not think it will. Most...

Frank Thomas hit three homeruns and drove in 5 RBI’s while Dustin McGowan pitched a complete game in the 6-1 win over the Boston Red Sox. A two-run homerun in the bottom of the first inning off of Tim Wakefield, another homer off of Wakefield in the sixth...

The Red Sox survived an eight run sixth inning rally from the Toronto Blue Jays who were down 10-1 entering the inning beating them 13-10. Mike Lowell was the offensive star of the game for the Red Sox going 3-4 with his 18th homerun of the season, four RBI’s,...

Despite a rough start from Julian Tavarez the Boston Red Sox (54-35) still had a chance to win, but Kyle Snyder surrendered two runs in the sixth to the Toronto Blue Jays (44-45) who eventually won 6-5 despite a ninth inning rally by Boston. First time All-Star...

The Toronto Blue Jays are looking to take the next step. The team that leapfrogged the Red Sox for second place at the deep end of last season is now focusing their attention on a first place crown and a much awaited playoff appearance. Life for Toronto...
