With men on first and second and none out, Rocco Baldelli hit a hard grounder that Kendrick fielded and turned into a double play. What got me, however, was that Baldelli was heading to the dugout instead of first. Maybe he thought he lined out, but it looked really bad, worse than anything [...]

It’s that time of the year when MLB rookies across the league are getting the old hazing treatment. And with the Boston Red Sox embarking on their final road trip of the season, it was their rookies turn to play dress up.
Leading us off in the Wizard of Oz theme is none other than the [...]

So, last night walk off by Alex Gonzalez happened. It did. I am smiling from ear to ear as a result. After the game, I had some Red Sox induced adrenaline so I had a hard time falling asleep. I spent way too much time blathering about the awesomeness of the Red Sox on the twitter. Then, I read this article at 1:35 AM EST by Adam Kilgore over at the Globe. Let's just highlight...

The Red Sox sent Daisuke Matsuzaka to the mound last night hoping to roll a seven, but with the knowledge they might roll snake-eyes.
The ‘pitching surplus’ the front office believed it had stocked last winter had turned out to be a mirage due to ineffectiveness (Penny and Smoltz) and injury (Matsuzaka and Wakefield). The rapid [...]

by Matt SnyderFiled under: AL Central, AL East, AL West, NL Central, NL East, NL West, MLB Power RankingsThey probably can't catch their rival Yankees in the AL East, but they don't have to. The Boston Red Sox only need to win the AL wild card to get to the postseason, and their play of late makes them a scary October out for anyone. Since losing two of three at home to the...

Just to show what the Red Sox think of Casey Kotchman’s offense, even in a lineup without Victor Martinez and Kevin Youkilis he bats eighth. Of course, as I wrote that he doubled leading off the third. The Angels lead 1-0 in the bottom of the third.

For three months Daisuke Matsuzaka(notes) did all he could to sabotage fantasy teams from coast to coast. Now he's back in Boston and coming off a snappy start – are you ready to trust again? My expectations for Dice-K on Tuesday night were so tempered, I didn't even bother to mention him in our nightly streaming section. When you basically throw underhand for three...

Watching Daisuke Matsuzaka shut out the powerful Angels lineup for six-plus innings was undoubtedly heartening to the Red Sox.
For starters, Matsuzaka made it into the seventh inning for the first time this season.
Matsuzaka, who turned 29 just two days earlier, had failed to do so in any of his previous eight starts.
The reason he was finally able to get that deep into the game...

in the postseason, returns to the rotation after a brief bout with shoulder
tendinitis. He's 15-5 with eight saves and a 3.33 ERA in 39 gam...
