The Red Sox took on the Orioles, but once again fell in extra innings. This season the Sox have remained winless in any game that has gone more than 9 innings. Aaron Cook took the mound for the Sox and while he wasn't lights out, he did give the team a chance to rally back.
Cook gave up a single run in the first with an Adam Jones groundout. Sox 0-1. The Sox bats got that run right back in the bottom of the first when Lavarnway hit an RBI single. Sox 1-1. In the 2nd, the Orioles would grab the lead back with an RBI single from Machado. Sox 1-2. The O's scored another run in the top of the 4th when Mark Reynolds hit a HR to the Monster. Sox 1-3. The Sox tied it up when Danny Valencia hit a 2 run HR well over the Monster. Sox 3-3. Cook lasted until the 6th inning when he gave up a single and a double. Cook was done for the night and Rich Hill was in the game. Hill gave up a 2 run RBI triple to Flaherty to give the Os a 5-3 lead. Hill was done and Mortensen was...

After every series, we'll take stock of how each individual and group performance affects their overall value.

Pedro Ciriaco: Pedro did well at the plate in 2 out of 3 games, which is an improvement of his 1 out of 4 against the Rays.

Like Red Sox, Ortiz looking ahead to offseason
David Ortiz has been through a lot in nearly a decade with the Red Sox.
He's earned two World Series rings and owns the club record for homers in a season. He suffered through a monumental September collapse last year, and has been sidelined with a strained right Achilles as the team faded out of the playoff picture this season.
This winter, he'll likely experience something...

Jon Lester pitched an OK game. The offense couldn't get across the plate. Sox lose 4-2 to Baltimore.
The good news is that the Sox didn't lose this game in any kind of heart-breaking fashion. Just a good old boring loss. Not much to say about the game, really. Lester threw 7 mediocre innings, giving up 8 hits, walking 3 O's with only 3 K's. All 4...

If the Red Sox have been one of the most disappointing teams in baseball this year, then waiver trade import James Loney has been one of its most disappointing and frustrating players. The 28-year-old first baseman entered his contract year with high hopes. He tallied 2.4 WAR last year in the best season of his career, and while his numbers weren’t all that impressive when placed...

Four starts ago, the talk around the Boston Red Sox was that Felix Doubront could be shut down for the rest of the season. After all, he'd never thrown this many innings or pitches in a season.
Doubront fought for himself and told them he'd be fine. They should be glad he did.
Yesterday afternoon in his final Fenway Park of the season, Doubront put together a gem as...
