It’s official, the AL playoffs will go through Fenway Park. And guess who the Sox have to thank for that? A man by the name of Hideki Okajima.
That’s right, Okie has returned from his respite/vacation to toss two perfect innings in two nights, last night’s spotless frame in the ninth to shut down the [...]
Ever been in a situation where you’re really proud of one accomplishment, but know that there’s an even bigger step on the immediate horizon? Welcome to the world of fellow Red Sox fans.
Make no mistake, the team’s last couple wins have been huge accomplishments. Two nights ago the Sox needed to get a win [...]
It may not be the whole enchilada, but it’s a hell of an appetizer, isn’t it? It’s a little like waking up next to Tara Connor; it might not have happened under the most holistic conditions, what with the Red Sox ongoing meltdown, but it sure looks good in the morning regardless.
Tara Connor and a [...]
OK Clay Buchholz, here’s the deal: The Sox need a win. They need one bad. You’re already well on your way to becoming a true Boston hero. If you can come through with another big performance on the hill, you’ll be up at Roger Clemens like levels three starts into your career, and that’s saying [...]
That one hurt.
If it had only been this SSS (Schilling Solo Shot), the Sox would have been alright. If only.
Ok, so it would have been one thing for the Sox to lose. But to lose for the second time in three days, in uber-dramatic fashion? They really could have cut their fans a little [...]
There have been plenty of heated TV dilemmas for Boston fans in the past but, perhaps, never one more divisive than tonight’s.
Guess what? He’s baaaack. But so are the Pats. So who you gonna watch?
That’s because both the Red Sox and Patriots find themselves in pivotal games. Both are at home. And both are [...]
Seriously. Did that just happen? Really, are we sure it did?
Ugggh. Sox fans are so sick of these guys. Seriously.
Let’s try to focus on just how painful last night’s loss really was. The game was over. O-V-E-R over, like Okajima-Papelbon in the eighth and ninth over.
In fact, that’s just the problem. It wasn’t [...]
Here comes the inevitable surge, right?
Josh has come up big most of the year, but his performance down the stretch may win or lose him the Cy Young.
With the Yankees embroiled in a sudden minor downslide, 2 straight losses, one of which came in a crucial game against fellow AL Wild Card contender Seattle, the [...]
OK, now that we’ve all had enough time to rebound from last night’s most recent Matsuzaka massacre, let’s re-hash and figure out where we are:
The Dice-man held his own last night, but he couldn’t overwhelm the Yankees. Again.
1) Sox still lead the division by 7. Looks good there.
2) Josh Beckett twirls tonight, looking for win [...]
Anyone else know what to make of yesterday’s split doubleheader?
How often is it that you have two 15-game winners pitching on the same day, in the same ballpark, and neither one gets a win? I mean really, can somebody get Elias on that one? And how often is it that you have one catcher [...]
