Adrian Gonzalez and his imposing eyebrows helped get the Sox back to their winning ways. A three-for-four night with a homerun and two RBI. Gonzo …

Dustin Pedroia wasted no time extending his hitting streak by going back-to-back with Ellsbury in the bottom of the first. Twenty-four games and counting. David …

And I mean that in an “as-a-starting-pitcher” kinda way. I’m starting with these two. Then, if the third worst team in the AL roughs him …

  Move over Jim Joyce, there’s a new goat in town. After more than six-and-a-half hours of baseball, the Pirates saw the game drop into …

YOU are the stacked-top-to-bottom Red Sox. THEY are the last-place-in-the-Central-AL Royals. No more of this not scoring runs bullshit. If the night doesn’t end with …

The Red Sox didn’t get the win last night (actually, early this morning) but that’s OK. I’m a big picture guy, and seeing Lester back …

Lester returns tonight, against the franchise he once no-hit. With the Justice League of America providing our offense. And the hometown crowd at his back. …

Well I know what I’m doing next Saturday night. Of course, I never got a chance to solidify my plans with Ms. Watney or her …

On July 5th, Jon Lester pitched four no-hit innings against the Blue Jays, then departed the game with what would be diagnosed as a lat …

The Red Sox close out the month of July with ten games against some of the weakest teams in the American League. Three against Seattle …

No need to dwell on last night’s loss – if anyone thought they were going to win all the games, even against lowly Baltimore…it just …

Jeremy Guthrie versus Stone Temple Weiland? I’m predicting a final score of 24-18.

With all the attention on Gonzo, pitching injuries, the new Harry Potter movie, it’s understandable that little has been made about the run Dustin Pedroia …
