So the Yanks come to town tonight with the AL East all knotted up. And the Sox are definitely the team that is playing better right now. But this is the first test, I suppose.
I really didn’t watch much this weekend; I listened to the whole game on the radio while finishing the […]

So with the World Champs coming to Fenway, the Sox are on a mini-roll. Pedro showed no signs of injury yesterday, and once again the offense was en fuego. Nomar again showing signs that pop-up-itis may be receding; and Florida with another nice night at the plate. Boy, his defense can be […]

For all the hype earlier this season about the Yankee juggernaut, the Sox are 1 game back as of right now. Not to shabby. Hopefully they can keep it 1 or 2 for the head to head series next week…
Nice game last night…Fossum pitched well, Mendoza pitched well, Nomar looked better, Ortiz with […]

Wow…again. Eighth time, I believe, coming from behind to win. Yet another example of how this team refuses to lay down:
“We believe we’re always in the game,” Nomar Garciaparra said. “When you’re trailing like that, you know you can depend on everybody.”
The Red Sox came back as they have all season, putting together […]

Especially to Lowe, that mother (shut yo’ mouth). I didn’t actually watch until the last 2 innings last night; my entire weekend was otherwise occupied. But I’m assuming that Lowe wasn’t very good; I haven’t read the recaps yet. Again, though, you have to like this team’s ability to battle back…down 8 […]

Nice story this morning about Todd Walker returning to his original turf. Todd is a nice example of the excellent job the Sox did in the offseason aquiring non-pitchers (Walker, Mueller, Millar, Jackson…and hopefully Ortiz and Lil’ G improve).
“I haven’t been booed, so I must be doing something right,” Walker said with […]

…game where the Sox come from behind. And this time actually win. Like I said a while back, I love that there is no quit in this lineup…and even though there have been a couple where they have battled back and the pen blew it, so far it appears that the hitters aren’t […]

Before I get into last night; let me just say that I completely disagree with the suspension of Bob Ryan. For those that don’t know what happened; on a late-night TV show Sunday, Ryan made a comment that he wanted to ’slap’ Jason Kidd’s wife for her shameless use of their child courtside at […]

So I heard mention yesterday of a poll done by Quinnipiac that said that the Yanks are the favorite baseball team here in Connecticut; 47% of respondants said that the Yanks are their favorite team; as opposed to 33% claiming allegiance to the Sox
However, when it is broken down, the numbers are vastly skewed by […]

…ran over the Sox Dogma.
Well, that kind of sucked. So many positives (Mendoza 3 strong, Jackson’s throw to the plate, Nomar/Tek homers) outweighing the negatives on paper…but unfortunately, the negative of Lyon melting down resulted in a loss. Yes, Nomar’s error sealed the victory for KC; but he shouldn’t have been in that […]
