I got great seats to see the plucky, underdog Yankees take on the mighty Houston Astros Thursday night. Unfortunately, the seats were on the 3rd base line in the heart of Yankee fan territory. Here are some of my favorite things I heard yelled by the fans during the...

Koji Uehara once again made it look very easy when he recorded his first save of 2014 as the Boston Red Sox wrapped up their first series win. The team also pounded out 14 hits. The way they won made it seem like the party from 2013 was carrying over to this year....

Jon Lester’s record may stand at 0-1 after his first start of the season, but don’t let that fool you—the left-hander was very much the same pitcher who helped lead the Red Sox to the World Series last October. In fact, the Red Sox themselves played much the same type...
