Red Sox refuse to lose, walk off White Sox in 13-inning thriller for eighth straight win
At this point, what else can you say about the run the Red Sox are on?They fell behind by four runs after the third inning. They were down to their final strike in the ninth. They watched the White Sox take the lead in the 10th, 11th and 12th innings. And somehow, every single time, they found a way to answer before ultimately sending Fenway Park into a frenzy.

Giardi: Despite no new deal, Gonzalez keeps showing out; plus, Boutte on what's best for him

Haggerty: The NHL's best of what's left out there
There has been a lot of money thrown around this NHL offseason with the salary cap steadily rising, but thankfully the Boston Bruins have spent out the wild spending sprees for the most part. Instead, they traded for a couple of players signed to longer term deals in JJ Peterka and Will Borgen in a pretty savvy acknowledgement that one of the more valuable things moving forward is going to be useful players signed at yesterday’s market prices. Still, there will be times when the Bruins will ha...

Giardi: Is Gonzalez's contract situation impacting Maye's thinking about his future deal?

Giardi: Gabe Jacas insistent on moving forward and doing whatever's asked
He comes carrying more baggage than most rookies, and despite both wanting that baggage to end up as a mere footnote in a long and productive career in New England, Jacas’ contract makes this a story that isn’t over yet.
Bedard: Patriots Practice Report 08.04.26 - After slow start, Maye and the offense find their rhythm
When the first team sputtered out of the gate without gaining a first down in two chances as Drake Maye started 1 of 4 with an unblocked sack, it was feeling like a continuation of Monday's struggles, and I was preparing to write an unflattering report. I mean, it was not good. Maye went 10 of 11 the rest of the way.
Bedard: Patriots Practice Report 08.03.26 - First defense flexes red-zone muscle on Maye, offense indoors; Lomu struggling
A lot of situational red zone work today, where the downs and chains were pre-determined and not linked up to the previous play. Mike Vrabel wants the offense to be improved in the red zone (and the defense as well), but it was not a good day for Maye and his crew. They were just successful on 2 of their 5 drives, and one of them was via the ground. Conversely, DeVito and the second-team offense were successful on 4 of 5 drives and put two touchdowns in a drive twice.

“It's definitely heating up a little bit more, but I think it's been kind of a lot of back and forth throughout training camp,” Kevin Byard said post-practice. “Vrabes (Mike Vrabel) is telling when the offense scores, to go celebrate, (and) we get pissed off…
