After losing two of three to the soaring Orioles, the Boston Red Sox (58-61, 12.5 games back in the AL East) drag their sorry butts to the Bronx for a three-game expected thrashing series with the New York Yankees (70-48, 6 games ahead in the AL East). The Yankees are...

After taking only one win against the Texas Rangers, the Boston Red Sox (49-50, 10.5 games behind in the AL East) move on to the Bronx to face their ancient rivals, the New York Yankees (59-39, 7.5 games ahead in the AL East). The Red Sox find themselves in last place...

After taking two of three against the pesky Toronto Blue Jays, the Boston Red Sox (40-35) wing it to the West Coast to take on the foundering Seattle Mariners (32-45). The Mariners are 4-6 in their last 10 games, while the Red Sox are 8-2 in their last 10. The Sox are...

The Boston Red Sox (15-19) finish their current homestand with a two-game series against the Seattle Mariners (16-20). The Mariners aren’t setting the world on fire lately but are 5-5 in their last 10 games, which is pretty good for the Mariners. Then again, the...

With Kevin Youkilis and David Ortiz sidelined, the Boston Red Sox are starting to feel the affects. Replacements at third and fourth in the lineup, Jason Bay and Mike Lowell went 0-for-8 and the Red Sox collapsed in the bottom of the ninth on a Nick Green throwing...

Don’t be fooled, Ichiro can certainly hit the long ball too. Ichiro 3-for-4 with two home runs including a go-ahead two-run homer in the sixth inning to propel Seattle over Jon Lester and the Boston Red Sox. Lester suffered his fourth loss of the season (2-4) on...

Ok, the season has started. So here is my quick write-up on the AL West, along with very quick predictions for the remaining divisions. LA Angels of Anaheim: 86-76: The one thing that I am not sold on is that a team like the Angels are solely summed up in their run...
by evan brunell | Sep 27, 2008 | Ichiro Suzuki, Trivia
The last trivia question revealed that Ichiro Suzuki and Johnny Pesky are the only two players in history to get at least 200 hits the first three seasons of their career. The new trivia question: The Red Sox have three players with at least 20 steals (Dustin Pedroia,...

Bad enough for the Boston Red Sox that Daisuke Matsuzaka was taken out of the game in the fifth inning with a lower back injury, but even worse is that Manny Ramirez’ 499th home run, a three-run shot, to tie the game at 3-3 was all for naught as the Seattle...

Through seven innings Felix Hernandez had been dominant, the eighth inning was so much different. Dustin Pedroia hit a ground rule double to deep left field scoring Julio Lugo making it 2-1. Pedroia’s RBI double then ensued a Hernandez collapse. Boston went on...
