No warning track power this time, Jason Bay wasn’t going to be short changed. Bay blasted a fastball from Garrett Olson to left field well over the fence giving Boston a 2-0 lead in the first inning. Then, Jason Varitek took Olson deep for another two-run homer...

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...

Tim Wakefield had lost 5 straight road games to the Los Angeles Angels. He looked well on his way to breaking that streak with a four run lead heading into the bottom of the third. Mike Napoli made sure Wakefield’s streak extended to six games with one swing of...

Steve Phillips the other night suggested that Jason Bay was a better base-runner than the Red Sox may have initially thought. Now, I have to admit, it is very difficult to pick up on one’s base-running skills from simply watching the games. When a ball is put in...

I will just come out and say it. Jason Bay is playing well, really well. And Jason Bay is in his contract year. Now, I’m not suggesting that is why Bay is playing so well. And I do not think that Bay will kill the ball like this, all season long. Actually the...

The Boston Bruins and Boston Celtics had already won their playoff games. So, It couldn’t have been more fitting that Jonathan Papelbon had a chance to close out the Boston sports tri-fecta. Papelbon made it as interesting as Glen “Big Baby” Davis...

Opposing teams must fear the sixth inning against the Boston Red Sox. Boston torched opposing pitching again in the sixth inning as Jason Bay launched a three-run homer off of James Shields and J.D. Drew followed with a two-run blast as the Red Sox mounted a five-run...

Rocco Baldelli singled home two runs in the bottom of the sixth for the Red Sox giving them a 4-2 lead. For Boston, it was all the run support they needed but it didn’t stop there. The Red Sox went on to break an 84-year-old-American League record scoring 12...
by evan brunell | May 6, 2009 | Jason Bay
Jason Bay is currently experiencing the best year of his career so far. It’s only been 26 games with well over 100 to go, but Bay’s hot start has been invaluable as David Ortiz works out of his devastating slump. On the year so far, Bay’s hitting...

Fine Jason Bay, next time I WILL pick you for the Star of the Game. I got the message. The New York Yankees, however, haven’t. In his first at-bat, Bay lifted a three-run jack to left field — his seventh homer this season — against Joba Chamberlain...
