Red Sox Sweep Angels, Now Yankees Come to Town

It’s great that the Red Sox swept the Angels this week at Fenway Park.  The club is now back at .500 with a 14-14 record.  But now the real test comes – hosting the Yankees in a 3-game weekend series with the AL East division on the line.  The Red Sox already trail the Tampa [...]

Red Sox Begin Big 10-Game Homestand Tonight @ Fenway Park

It’s not do-or-die, but if the Red Sox do not have a successful 10-game homestand at Fenway Park, they could have a very tough time making the 2010 playoffs.  The Red Sox just dropped 3 straight to the lowly Orioles in Baltimore over the weekend.  They are 3 games under .500 at 11-14, and they [...]
