7/8: Prelude to an All-Star

Considering the ovation Nomar got, why wouldn't we honor Wake and his first All-Star appearance even more of an ovation when he takes the mound tonight?

7/7: Stop the slide

Is it me or is there the feeling of an "into the break" malaise overtaking this team? With six games between here and the All-Star Break, its time to snap out of it and hit the break hard.

7/6: Nomar…thanks

Nomar, Smoltz, got so wrapped up in the moment, I missed the game thread ;)

What a great moment at Fenway tonight.

7/5: The day after

Short game thread post from iPhone at the beach. Dedication has no boundaries.

7/4: Happy Independence Day

7/3: Wake’s All-Star Statement Game

Tim Wakefield has never been to an All-Game and this year may be his best and last chance. With a 10-3 record, the few blips that bounced his ERA above 4.00 can be ignored along the way, especially with a win in a head to head duel with 8-3 Felix Hernandez (2.54 ERA) tonight.

6/14: You’re the best around!

Sweep the leg Josh...

6/13: Dice K vs. the Bastardo

Two Red Sox go for a little redemption tonight as Julio Lugo gets the start at SS and Daisuke Matsuzaka takes to the hill. Both could use a confidence booster.

6/12: Bring on the defending champs

Tonight is all about riding hot streaks. Can Jon Lester stay hot on the mound? Can David Ortiz, who will be playing first base tonight, stay warming at the plate? Can the Red Sox stay high after their sweep vs. NY?

6/4: Sneaky midweek game day

Sorry for the late game thread ;)
