TUESDAY Bo Bichette became the first Met to homer on the first pitch the Mets saw since Brandon Nimmo off Adam Wainwright on June 17, 2023 Craig Kimbrel struck out three batters swinging in an outing for the 63rd time in his career, but only the fifth time since the start of 2022. One of […]
Worcester: L, 3-6 (BOX SCORE) Jack Anderson got taken for a ride in that middle relief spot as the Red Wings (Nationals AAA) put this one out of reach for the WooSox. While Worcester didn’t have the same luck the Red Sox did with runners in scoring position, going 3-for-8, the lack of baserunners to […]
No need to panic over Ranger Suarez’s hamstring injury just yet. The injury is said to be minor and Suarez himself sounds optimistic: “[H]opefully I don’t miss anything and I can [make] my next start.” But even if this particularly injury doesn’t sideline Suarez for so long, there’s no question that the various hits to […]
Good morning to fans of a first-place team.
Good morning, baseball fans! We are in the middle of a new feature for May that I’m calling the “12 Days of Mays-mas” because I won’t be around for this week, and I want to leave you guys with some fun things to watch while I’m gone. For the fourth day of Mays-mas, I thought […]
That week sucked, man. Even with a couple of wins for the Red Sox here and there, I think we can go ahead and generally chalk up the recent play we’ve seen one week into the post-Cora era as “uninspiring” as this dreadful start to the season slugs along. Another series L against Houston only […]
Hello and happy Monday, folks. The Boston Red Sox baseball club is at it again tonight. They travel to Detroit to face the Tigers in the first of a three-game series. First pitch from the Motor City is 6:40 EST. The best lefty on the planet will be taking to the mound, as Payton Tolle […]
The Detroit Tigers wrapped up a series win over the visiting Texas Rangers on Sunday with a 7-1 victory at Comerica Park. Spencer Torkelson went yard for the sixth time this season to give his team a lead that the bullpen would not relinquish. On Monday, the Motor City Kitties kick off the second half […]
If you had told me about six weeks ago how disappointed I would be at the Sox losing a 4-3 nailbiter and failing to complete a series sweep against one of the National League’s better teams, I probably would’ve told you that it was a good thing. And I would be correct! While today’s tight […]
After a handful of starts for High-A Greenville, Anthony Eyanson is ready to move up to the next level. The Red Sox are promoting the talented pitching prospect to Double-A Portland, according to Chase Ford of MiLB Central. Eyanson is just days removed from making his fifth (and perhaps final) start for Greenville at home … Continue reading "Red Sox to promote top pitching prospect Anthony Eyanson to Double-A Portland"
Squandered is the word of the weekend. It means to waste resources or opportunities through negligence or inaction. In this context, it means leaving runners on base at seemingly every turn. The Red Sox pitched a really good game today. Ranger Suarez threw four shutout innings before leaving the game with hamstring tightness. Tyler Samaniego, […]
Ranger Suarez takes the bump for the Red Sox today in the series finale against the Houston Astros. His first start of the season — a four-run, 4.1 inning performance — came against the Astros, but he’s been much sharper of late. Two of his last three starts were eight-inning shutouts. The Red Sox are […]
TODAY’S GAME: The Houston Astros (13-21) and Boston Red Sox (13-20) play the rubber match of this 3-game weekend series at Fenway Park this afternoon. RHP Cody Bolton (0-1, 5.79 ERA) will start for the Astros vs. BOS LHP Ranger Suarez (2-2, 3.09 ERA). Today will be Bolton’s 1st career appearance at Fenway Park. TODAY’S […]
Babe Ruth is certainly the most famous trade/acquisition in Yankees’ history, probably in baseball history, and you could make the argument for in all of sports history. A big part of its fame relates to how much it almost immediately became a massive swindle, leading to the Red Sox being “cursed” for decades to come. […]
Good morning, baseball fans! We are in the middle of a new feature for May that I’m calling the “12 Days of Mays-mas” because I won’t be around for the next week or so, and I want to leave you guys with some fun things to watch while I’m gone. For the third day of […]
Alex Cora’s termination ended the short-lived tenure of the painfully awful hit celebration that the Red Sox began the 2026 season with. No matter what else comes out of the managerial and coaching changes, I’m truly appreciative of the ripple effect they had on this weirdly weak and unoriginal celebration. As I wrote earlier, the […]
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders: L, 2-4 (11) vs. Buffalo Bisons SS George Lombard Jr. 1-5, K — had a chance to walk it off in the ninth with winning run at second, but struck outCF Spencer Jones 1-4, BB, KRF Yanquiel Fernández 2-5, HR, 2 RBI — solo shot and RBI single were Scranton’s only runs3B […]
Where the White Sox bats exploded early in the ballgame yesterday, today, the pitchers steered the first half of today’s story. Michael King and Sean Burke were trading goose eggs like baseball cards, while hitters were just trying to get a pack of cards for themselves. The Sox tried to stir trouble in the second […]
The sequence that most perfectly encapsulates today’s loss to the Astros began in the bottom of the third inning. Willson Contreras was at the plate with the bases loaded and just one out; Astros’ starter Spencer Arrighetti was teetering and had just walked the previous two men, and there was more lumber lurking on deck […]
As the Braves go for yet another series win, they turn to Chris Sale at Coors Field, expecting to see the Rockies’ young star Chase Dollander, with Brennan Bernardino as the opener. Michael Harris returns to the starting lineup at DH after his epic game-winning home run Friday night, as he continues to nurse his […]
TODAY’S GAME: The Houston Astros (12-21) and Boston Red Sox (13-19) play the 2nd game of this 3-game weekend series at Fenway Park this afternoon. RHP Spencer Arrighetti (3-0, 2.00 ERA) will start for the Astros vs. BOS LHP Connelly Early (2-1, 2.84 ERA). The Astros will be facing Early for the 1st time in […]
In his four career starts at Fenway Park, Connelly Early has gotten a grand total four runs of support from his teammates. The Red Sox have lost those games by scores of 2-1, 2-1, 3-2, and 4-0. As bad as that is though, I regret to inform you that the Red Sox have been shut […]
Worcester: W, 10-5 (BOX SCORE) This WooSox team found themselves in a quick hole after Isaac Coffey gave up a home run and the Red Wings (Nationals AAA) pulled out to a 5-2 lead, but that’s not to say the WooSox were just laying down without a fight. Mickey Gasper started off what would become […]
What a weird game to be a part of, right? Your home debut of your interim manager, an MLB debut of a young southpaw, the plane flying Fire Breslow, Sell The Team above Fenway before the game, this had the makings of a mental disaster. Not tonight, apparently. It was left all off the field […]
With the calendar flipping to May, the first month of Anthony Eyanson’s first full professional season is in the books. It ended without the talented Red Sox pitching prospect issuing a single walk. Though he did hit a batter, Eyanson was otherwise in control for High-A Greenville. In four April starts, the 21-year-old right-hander posted … Continue reading "Red Sox’ Anthony Eyanson off to eye-opening start at High-A Greenville"
