Nick Pivetta’s minor league rehab assignment was halted after just one outing on August 4, as Pivetta left the game due to elbow discomfort. He returned to pitch three innings with A-level Lake Elsinore on August 25, and then 4 1/3 shutout innings with Triple-A El Paso on August 30. The next step is a […]
There’s no way to guarantee Sonny Gray will pitch well when he takes the mound for the Red Sox in a postseason game at the end of the month. However, giving him extra rest going into the September stretch run and seeing him respond by pitching fantastic against a good lineup on the road fighting […]
The Red Sox didn’t have anything close to their regular lineup on the field Saturday night. It didn’t stop them from finding enough offense to make Sonny Gray’s best start in weeks stand up.
For the second consecutive night, the Orioles offense was an absolute no-show, getting blanked yet again in a 5-0 defeat at the hands of visiting Red Sox on Saturday night at Camden Yards. The sixth inning of this game felt like a a death knell for the 2026 Orioles. At the time, the game was […]
This is the type of game where, if you look at it on the surface, the Orioles don’t stand a chance. Suddenly, they are on a four-game skid that could turn into a downward death spiral as the schedule gets tougher. Their opponent has been one of the best team’s in the league since the […]
BALTIMORE—Outfielder Tyler O’Neill, who’s on the 10-day injured list with right shoulder inflammation, is eligible to return, but he’s not close to playing. Manager Craig Albernaz didn’t sound optimistic that O’Neill would return before the season ends on September 27th. “It’s tough what he’s dealing with right now,” Albernaz said. “We’re trying to assess him […]
The Red Sox enter tonight’s game against the Orioles with a 77-65 record, 12 games above .500. Sonny Gray, who hasn’t pitched in ten days, also enters tonight 12 games above .500 with a personal record of 16-4. It’s probably a bit strong to say the Red Sox would be a .500 team without Gray, […]
Last Sunday, there was quite a hubbub surrounding a catch/no catch call in the Yankees-Red Sox game. Ceddanne Rafaela came very close to making a catch on a Jazz Chisholm Jr. fly ball that then would’ve led to a double play. However, the call on the field was that he trapped it, and that ruling […]
The Yankees lost in walk-off fashion to San Diego on Friday night, but they might not have played extras had it not been for a misplay that allowed the Padres to score their only run of the initial nine innings. With two outs in the second, Xander Bogaerts got under a pitch from Max Fried […]
Worcester, Game 1: W, 6-4 (F/10) (BOX SCORE) (Continued in 9th inning from yesterday) Fans in Buffalo (Blue Jays AAA) were treated to some extra baseball on Friday as beneficiaries of the game being called off in a gridlocked tie in the ninth. Vinny Capra’s home run in the top of the tenth made it […]
Amidst the chaos of the final two innings Friday night, which included a man trying to fire up his own (sparse) crowd after their team hit into an inning-ending double play, and bullpens politely filing out of the same door to join a mini-fracas, something else quietly happened. Aroldis Chapman picked up his 399th career […]
Baltimore Orioles second baseman Blaze Alexander said he felt he made a clean slide into second base Friday night before an argument that led to a benches-clearing brawl with the Boston Red Sox.
The Boston Red Sox have turned things around offensively after a slow start to the season, and they may be on their way to becoming a juggernaut in October.
The Yankees lost a tough one on Friday night, as they failed to score more than a Ben Rice solo shot against old nemesis Walker Buehler, and while Max Fried, Will Warren, and David Bednar admirably went toe-to-toe with a fierce Padres bullpen, it wasn’t enough. A 2-1 lead in the 10th vanished on one […]
An apparent stare-down was all it took for Blaze Alexander to spark a benches-clearing incident on Friday. Essentially a pitcher’s duel, the rivalry between the AL East rivals, the Boston Red Sox and the Baltimore Orioles, spilled over in the late innings. The crowd at Camden Yards witnessed the two teams turn a routine double […]

Ima Gun-Di. Garielvin Silverio. Jace Mataczynski. Salacious B. Crumb. Tobias Beckett. Jedixson Paez. Half of these are characters from the Star Wars universe; the other half are Boston Red Sox prospects. That doesn’t have much to do with the rest of this piece, but recent Red Sox call-up Jedixson Paez’s name starts with “Jedi” and […]
BALTIMORE—Three surviving members of the 1966 Orioles World Series team, the one that shockingly beat the Los Angeles Dodgers in four games to win the team’s first title, threw out first pitches before Friday night’s game against the Boston Red Sox. Jim Palmer, Boog Powell and reliever Eddie Watt were on hand, and watched the […]
A few days ago, cracks were beginning to show in a Red Sox rotation that has spent much of the summer trying to survive an endless string of injuries.Two nights in Baltimore have provided a much-needed response.After Jake Bennett settled things down Thursday, Ranger Suarez looked like his first-half All-Star self Friday, tossing seven scoreless innings as the Red Sox edged the Orioles, 1-0, at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.
The Orioles and Red Sox faced off for the second game of their four-game series, and once again the Orioles were unable to give starter Shane Baz any run support. Baz and Red Sox starter Ranger Suarez dueled and ended with similar results, the only difference being one first-inning run. That was enough to decide […]
Tanner Houck was a very important member of the Boston Red Sox pitching staff in 2024. He was good enough that he was selected as an American League All-Star that season. He started to struggle that season after that honor, and he had a difficult time getting the job done last year before he was […]

Former Red Sox outfield prospect Enddy Azocar has been named the South Atlantic League Player of the Month for August, Minor League Baseball announced on Thursday. Azocar began August with High-A Greenville before being dealt to the Orioles as part of the Adley Rutschman blockbuster at the trade deadline. The 19-year-old reported to High-A Frederick … Continue reading "Former Red Sox OF prospect Enddy Azocar named South Atlantic League Player of the Month for August"
The San Francisco Giants, along with the Los Angeles Dodgers, San Diego Padres, Atlanta Braves, and Boston Red Sox, announced a partnership with prediction market Kalshi last week. “Kalshi will receive a mix of marketing and brand integration assets, including in-ballpark signage, radio drops, experiential activations, and other promotional opportunities,” MLB said of the partnerships…
The Orioles could have won last night, but they didn’t. A night where Adley Rutschman returned and hit two home runs, but the Orioles still won, would have been a pretty decent outcome in my book. Brandon Young did his part. Pete Alonso, Luis Robert, and Christian Encarnacion-Strand homered. But the bullpen blew it. It […]
BALTIMORE—Ryan Helsley, who began the season as the Orioles’ closer but has had two lengthy stints on the injured list that have limited him to 17 games, still might pitch in the final games of the season, manager Craig Albernaz said on Friday. Helsley last pitched on June 27th and has been on the 60-day […]
