We’ve seen this once before, a completely Red Sox-crazed country, with all of New England doing backflips to pay homage to the city and team that brought it joy.
Wait, this guy is our closer!?! God help us, he’s just impossible not to love, isn’t he?
Well, strap yourself in folks, here we go again:
- The [...]
We’re at that point in the season, the one where a single win ends it all, makes the difference between glory and purgatory, ultimate merit or the sudden mediocrity afforded to teams sent back to the pack to wait for 2008.
Let the record show that in each of the last six times such a [...]
Like the ALDS and ALCS, we jumped on board with Red Sox Monster to be part of a Red Sox World Series roundtable, joining Red Sox Monster publisher Dan Lamothe (who kept his picks separate in a private podcast) and Red Sox Stats’ Guy’s Mike Colluci.
Without further ado, here’s the the full roundtable piece [...]
It doesn’t get much better than that.
Paps isn’t just a world class closer, he’s a world class partier, too.
The Red Sox exploded for the ALCS crown. They didn’t just win, they took a close game and blew it up to the tune of a nine-run victory. And five of those runs came from Boston’s [...]
Well folks, this is it. Like it or not, an entire baseball season comes down to one night for the two teams that shared the best regular season record.
This window shot was mighty lucky last night. Let’s see if it does the trick again for Game 7, eh?
For two historic baseball cities, tonight will [...]
How else can you describe last night’s Game 6 throttling of the Indians? A 40 year-old starter who showed up to spring training bigger than a blimp came through with a gutsy, seven-inning performance. The most maligned man in Boston hit a first inning grand slam and tacked on another RBI in his second trip [...]
This is it. Again. And if things go well, we might even get to write that one more time this week.
The fans and the faith are there. The question is whether the Curt Schilling of old will make an appearance, too.
Still, it’s clear that Terry Francona thinks this thing is going in the right [...]
Somewhere in the aftermath of Boston’s 7-1 victory in Game 5, a lot of Red Sox fans seem to have lost sight of an important fact: The Sox are still down, three games to two. Like the Bee Jees, they’re still looking to Stay Alive.
Stayin’ Alive: That’s the goal Monsieur Schilling. We’ll talk moolah [...]
That’s what Cleveland gets for trotting out one of Josh Beckett’s former girlfriends, just one among many in a group that could grow after yet another impressive postseason win last night.
Danielle Peck is a looker, but her former boyfriend was the one breaking hearts last night.
What happened on the banks of Lake Erie last [...]
The backs are up against the wall. This is it. A loss and it’s done.
Enter Josh Beckett.
Beckett goes tonight, and if he loses, there’s nowhere else to go.
The man who has owned the playoffs so far has to come up as big as he ever has. If he doesn’t, his team is in [...]
