At Least Two More Days Of Life In The ALCS
We find it telling that, the day after Josh Beckett once again saved the proverbial Red Sox hide, everyone was still talking about Manny Ramirez.

See, Now This Is Just Being Mean
Imagine you're facing one of the most important moments of your career, a moment in which you must be on top of your game and perform at your peak capacity.

David Boston Will Attack You With Comfortable Pillows

It's True: The Red Sox Have Become The Yankees
The kewpie doll this morning goes to commenters Chad Sexington (who provided us with this wonderfully ironic photo (and this animated GIF) and, especially, Fiddling While Jim Rome Burns, who came up with a theory that just might explain what's happening to the Red Sox right now. He calls it The Keki...
Behold The Wonder That Is Tim Wakefield
The man you see in this picture, about to knuckle that wildly bouncing arrow into the leg of the man standing next to him, is Tim Wakefield. He has been with the Red Sox since 1995 and has ridden all the postseason waves that have surrounded the team during that time. And tonight, he has to save th...

Pretty much every pitcher in baseball is going to throw more innings in which he gives up no runs, than he will in which he ...

The Red Sox and their fans might have been licking their proverbial chops at the notion of seeing Joe Borowski trying to finish up a close game ... but, then again, we suspect Indians fans weren't exactly quaking in their knickers at having to face J.D. Drew in the ninth either. The Indians have a ...
