Big early lead fails to help Kuroda

Via Pro Sports Daily  |  July 07, 2012
Hiroki Kuroda entered Friday night as one of the hottest pitchers in baseball, but as many pitchers before him have found out, Fenway Park can bring any hot streak to an end. Kuroda watched his New York Yankees teammates stake him to a five-run lead before he took the mound, but he gave it all back in the bottom of the first, surrendering five runs before he recorded his third...

Josh Beckett did not have his best stuff on the mound on Friday night. Beckett allowed six runs over the first two innings in the first of a four-game series against the Yankees, putting Boston into a major hole. The Red Sox offense was able to capitalize and put forward a great effort in hopes of capturing the victory, but ultimately they came up short. Beckett spoke to reporters...

Beckett Falters and Sox Fall to Yanks

Via Fenway West  |  July 06, 2012
The Red Sox bats finally showed up, but unfortunately it would be at the same time that Beckett had one of the worst first innings of his career and a hiccup by the bullpen to allow the Yanks to take the first game of the series. Josh Beckett was just dreadful in the first inning.  Horrible.  Bad.  No good.  Beckett gave up 3 runs before getting a single out.  By the end of...

Recap: Sox pitchers struggle in 10-8 loss

Via Ted's Army  |  July 06, 2012
Tonight was no fun.  No fun at all.  Josh Beckett stinks up the joint.  Ray Allen signs with the Heat.  The Yankees beat Boston 10-8 in a game that lasted one minute shy of 4 hours.  Tonight's game was actually pretty exciting.  Josh Beckett came out and was just awful.  I can't stress that enough.  Here's what his first inning consisted of: - D.
