The Red Sox ended their 4-game skid with a come-from-behind roller coaster ride 8-6 win over the A’s on Friday night at Fenway Park. Clay Buchholz got off to a rough start by giving up 4 runs in the 1st inning to put the Sox in an early hole.  Buchholz didn’t even make it 5 [...]

Carl Crawford finally came through with a big clutch hit in the 9th inning to drive in the winning run of the Red Sox 3-2 win on Sunday afternoon. Tim Wakefield made the spot start for Clay Buchholz who was battling a flu over the weekend.  He made it 5 2/3 innings allowing just the [...]

Josh Beckett is once again doing his best to re-stake his claim on being the “ace” of the Red Sox starting rotation.  Beckett tossed 5-innings of no-hit ball before giving up a single to Erick Aybar to lead off the 6th inning.  It looked like Beckett would get another win as Jacoby Ellsbury’s 2-run single [...]

The Red Sox late rally wasn’t enough, as the Red Sox dropped a close one 7-6 to the Toronto Blue Jays at Fenway Park on Friday night.  Bobby Jenks took the loss as he surrendered 4 ER on 4 hits and 1 walk while retiring just 1 batter in the top of the 7th inning [...]

What else can you say – the Red Sox have the worst record in baseball at 2-9.  Jon Lester had one bad inning – 3 straight singles set up a fielder’s choice RBI groundout by Sam Fuld and a 2-run game winning single by former Red Sox player Johnny Damon.  And that’s all the Rays [...]

Josh Beckett pitched well, but Josh Tomlin was better, as the Indians handed the Red Sox their 4th straight loss to open the season.  Beckett went 6 strong innings, giving up 3 ER on 5 hits and 4 walks.  He also had 4 K’s and for the first game of the season, the Red Sox [...]

David Price outdueled John Lackey as the Tampa Bay Rays cruised past the Red Sox 7-4.  Lackey did not have his best stuff in Tuesday’s loss.  Lackey ended up giving up 5 ER on 6 hits and 2 walks in 5 1/3 innings pitched.  He did rack up 5 K’s, but he served up 2 [...]

Neither the Red Sox nor the Yankees used a starter in the Red Sox 2-1 ho-hum win over the New York Yankees on Monday night in Fort Myers.  Former Yankees pitcher Alfredo Aceves started for the Red Sox and tossed 3 innings of 1 run ball.  He gave up 3 hits and 1 walk while [...]

Clay Buchholz continues to show that his marvelous 2010 campaign was no fluke.  Buchholz scattered 4 hits over 4 scoreless  innings and he has still not allowed a single run this spring.  He struck out 3 batters and did not walk a batter.  If Buchholz and Lester pick up where they left off in 2010 [...]

The Red Sox have added another piece to their evolving bullpen mix – Dan Wheeler.  Wheller pitched for the Tampa Bay Rays each of the last 3 seasons and averaged 68 appearances per season in one of the best bullpens in baseball.  He was 2-4 with a 3.35 ERA in 56 appearances for the Rays [...]
