Justin Masterson gave up a single with the bases loaded in the bottom of the ninth and the Rays walked off with a 2-1 win and sole possession of the A. L. East once again. At least for one night. Josh Beckett went 8 innings, giving up one run, one walk, and struck out...

Sure, if all breaks right this upcoming series at the Trop, the Red Sox could find themselves in first place with an opportunity to finish first two straight years since 1915-1916. Yes, it’s been that long since the Red Sox could lay claim to first place two...
by shawn medeiros | Sep 6, 2008 | Josh Beckett, Mike Lowell
In Mike Lowell’s first at-bat after being on the disable list, Lowell smacked a solo-home run that would open the flood gates in Boston’s 8-1 rout of the Rangers. Josh Beckett also returned for the Red Sox earning his 12th win of the season on 5 innings...

Perhaps this is because I’m also a fan of the Detroit Tigers, but I have become sadly used to seeing my players get injured in absurd, eye-rolling ways. The following episode (episode?) of Terrible Cartoons thus seems perfectly natural to me. Seven ways Josh...

All of Josh Beckett’s tests with the Doctor of Doom, James Andrews, came back clean. Nevertheless, he’s being placed on the 15-day DL and Francona expects him to start next Friday’s game against Texas. Catcher David Ross has been called up, thus...

Josh Beckett has been scratched yet again, this time from his slated Friday start against the Chicago White Sox. He’s being sent to Dr. James Andrews (uh-oh, no Tommy John, please). “I think scary is probably a good word for it,” Beckett told the...
by shawn medeiros | Aug 18, 2008 | Josh Beckett, Shaun Marcum, Toronto Blue Jays
Josh Beckett could not get through 3 innings of work in his start against the Blue Jays giving up 10 hits and 8 runs in a 15-4 losing effort. Beckett allowed six runs to score in the top of the first inning and that is all that Toronto and Shaun Marcum needed for the...
