After nearly being no-hit by Jake Arrieta on Monday night, the Red Sox and Cubs met for the second game of their 3 game set on Tuesday. Boston sent Clay Buchholz to the mound for his second start since returning from the disabled list in late June. The tall righty...

After an extended hiatus, 3 Up 3 Down returns to give you a look at who performed well and who did not over the past week of Red Sox baseball. After what has been a tumultuous season (that could be the understatement of the season), the Boston Red Sox, after taking 2...

The Red Sox wrapped up their 10 game, 3 city road trip over the weekend as the team visited New York for three games against the Yankees. Boston dropped the first game of the series on Friday, despite receiving another strong pitching performance from rookie starter...

The Boston Red Sox finished up a 10-game road trip with two straight wins against the New York Yankees Saturday and Sunday. After going 2-6 through the first eight games, the Red Sox won a road series for the first time in the month to end the month of June. The Red...

After dropping 5 out of 7 games on the west coast, the Red Sox stumbled into just their second off day of the month. Boston is set to open a fairly important series with the team directly above them in the AL East standings this weekend: The New York Yankees....

In case you haven’t been paying attention to baseball, or minor league baseball specifically, for the past few months, allow me to inform you of a certain center fielder making some noise in the Boston minors. Mookie Betts is his name, and being an offensive...

It’s not a secret that the Red Sox have been taking on water ever since they touted a 20-19 record on May 14th. Even though a lot of blame has been placed on injuries, the sheer ineptitude of some players has been just as much of a culprit. Sure, you can point...

Everyone loves Mookie Betts, myself included. But everyone has also been very quick to point out Betts’ apparently ‘blocked’ path to the Major Leagues. Most Boston fans probably love Dustin Pedroia just a little bit more and they know that...

The 2014 season has been hard on the Red Sox to start with, but the 10-game losing streak was a low that not even the Bobby Valentine lead 2012 Red Sox reached. While the team is still below .500 and still in last place in the AL East, they were finally able to secure...

Today marked the end of the Red Sox 10-game losing streak, a dubious accomplishment that I can say I wouldn’t have expected from the defending champs. The Sox currently sit at 21-29, solidly in last place in the AL East. With still over 100 games remaining in the...
