Josh Beckett stepped in front of the Fenway Park rubber Wednesday night, slight breeze blowing across a pleasantly warm October night, prepared to exhibit a force of domination rarely seen from a pitcher of his age. From the first pitch to Chone Figgins to the final...

Here you guys go, enjoy. (By the way, I sat pretty far back from the field and my camera quality wasn’t as good as usual, so the pictures aren’t that great… but for those who didn’t attend the game, maybe you’ll get a kick out of...

Last year, the experience was shattered by an August collapse. In 2005, the postseason was washed away in the blink of an eye. The magical postseasons of 2004 and 2003 will never be forgotten, and we all sincerely hope 2007 adds its name to that cherished list. The...
