Red Sox Bats Overcome Buchholz’s Struggles in Win Over Orioles
The Red Sox are no longer in the basement of the American League East. Well, at least they’re not in the basement alone. The 8-6 win over the first place Baltimore Orioles combined with the New York Yankees loss tied the rivals with even 21-21 records for fourth place in the division. The win was [...]
Aviles, Saltalamacchia Homer in Red Sox Rubber-Match Win
In a typical start by Philadelphia ace Cliff Lee, teams that manage two runs count themselves lucky. The Boston Red Sox scored five against the dominating lefty Sunday afternoon, and they didn’t waste them. Mike Aviles and Jarrod Saltalamacchia both homered for the second straight day, and Josh Beckett held the Phillies to one run [...]
Kevin Youkilis Trade Rumors: Where Will He End Up?
The 2012 Boston Red Sox look a lot like the 2011 version of the team, at least on paper. Two players entered this year as potential free agents: David Ortiz and Kevin Youkilis. Ortiz, enjoying a tremendous resurgence, may have already guaranteed himself another arbitration deal with the Red Sox, but Kevin Youkilis, over whom [...]
Red Sox Home Runs Not Enough in 6-4 Loss in Philadelphia
The adventures of Daniel Bard as a starting pitcher for the Boston Red Sox in 2012 continues. On Friday night, the erratic pitcher continued to miss the strike zone early against the Philadelphia Phillies in what ended up a 6-4 Red Sox loss. The Phillies’ offense walked all over Bard in the first, and from [...]
Cody Ross Powers Red Sox to 5-3 Win at the Trop
After dropping the series opener on Wednesday night by the score of 2-1, the Boston Red Sox hit two home runs on Thursday night to back Felix Doubront en route to a 5-3 victory. Doubront went 5.2 innings, giving up two runs (one earned) and striking out seven. Matt Moore made the start for the [...]
Pawtucket Red Sox Update, Week 6: Podsednik Makes Good First Impression
The Pawtucket Red Sox just keep on tearing through the International League. A 6-1 week against three different teams expanded the Sox’ lead in the IL North from one half to three games. Daisuke Matsuzaka made his second rehab start, but Boston manager Bobby Valentine was unimpressed and announced that Daisuke would be making two [...]
Beckett Leads 5th Straight Win, Tim Wakefield Honored at Fenway
On a rainy Tuesday afternoon which featured the honoring of Tim Wakefield, the Red Sox swept away the Seattle Mariners in the short two-games series with a 5-0 win, led by a dominate rebound start from Josh Beckett. David Ortiz opened up the scoring in the third when he homered deep to right field off [...]
Josh Beckett Must Forgo Distractions (Like Golf), Pitch as Red Sox Ace
When it all comes down to it, Josh Beckett is a pitcher for the Boston Red Sox. He’s not supposed to collect attention off the field, he’s not supposed to create headline quotes, and he’s certainly not supposed to be golfing. He was acquired in the winter of 2005 to become the Red Sox ace [...]
Pink Bats Explode for Red Sox in Dominant Mother’s Day Blowout
Mother’s Day has a good ring to it at Fenway Park. The most memorable game the Sox played was the “Mother’s Day miracle”, when they scored six runs in the bottom of the ninth inning against the Baltimore Orioles in 2007 for a dramatic win. Sunday’s game between Boston and the Cleveland Indians might not [...]
Doubront Shines in 4-1 Victory, Pedroia Keeps Streaking
The Red Sox aren’t accustomed to winning games at Fenway Park this season. In fact, Boston won consecutive games at their home park for the first time all year on Friday night. The 4-1 win over Cleveland was highlighted by a terrific outing by southpaw Felix Doubront, who held the Indians lineup to just three [...]
Buchholz, Red Sox End Losing Skid in Win Over Indians
On Friday night the Red Sox attempted to turn things around, as their most recent struggles have been highlighted by the controversy of Josh Beckett on and off the field. Boston sent Clay Buchholz to the mound, who had been a notable part of the question marks surrounding the 12-19 team. And while Buchholz wasn’t [...]
Red Sox Lose in 17 Innings to Orioles
The Red Sox attempted to avoid being swept by the Baltimore Orioles as they sent Clay Buchholz on the mound on Sunday. Unfortunately the game turned into a ridiculous 17-inning affair ending in a brutally painful 9-6 Sox loss. Darnell McDonald earned the loss after the Sox depleted their available bullpen options and were forced to [...]
Aaron Cook Injured, Battered by Orioles in Red Sox Loss
Aaron Cook was hoping for a better first start in Boston. A much anticipated debut for the Red Sox on Saturday was shattered early, as a second inning collision with Chris Davis left a large gash in his leg. He amazingly stayed in the game, but probably would have been better off hitting the showers, [...]
Red Sox Fall to Orioles in 13 Innings
On a night when the Boston Celtics defeated the Atlanta Hawks in overtime, the Boston Red Sox were playing a bit of extra baseball in what ended up being their third consecutive loss. The division rival Baltimore Orioles (16-9) were in town, looking to improve upon a strong start to their season. The ninth inning [...]
Dice-K: Was it Worth the Hype and Money?
Daisuke Matsuzaka cost the Boston Red Sox over $100 million, with $51.1 million allotted for the posting fee and another $52 million for the six-year contract. With only 49 wins in 105 starts to go along with a 4.25 earned run average, the $100 million seems like a little bit too much for that production. [...]
