It’s been a good week for Jacoby Ellsbury & Adrian Gonzalez.  After each won a Gold Glove Award earlier this week, they each nabbed Silver Slugger Awards too.  David Ortiz was also named a Silver Sluggers Award recipient to round out the trio. What a great week – Go Sox!

Jacoby Ellsbury, Adrian Gonzalez and Dustin Pedroia each won Gold Glove Awards on Tuesday.  The 28-year old Pedroia won his 1st ever AL Gold Glove Award for his defense in center field.

The A’s clobbered Tim Wakefield and the Red Sox 15-5 on Friday night at Fenway Park.  Wakefield was denied the chance to pick up his 300th of his career for the 6th time.  Not good.  He gave up 8 runs (4 earned) on 8 hits and 2 walks in 4 innings pitched.  Given the scheduled [...]

Forget about being tired, the Red Sox slugged 16 hits and scored 15 runs, using an 8-run 8th inning to break a 7-7 tie en route to an easy win over the O’s.  Every Red Sox starter had a hit except for J.D. Drew.  Jacoby Ellsbury led off at the DH spot and had 3 [...]

Not the way you want to play on get-away day, especially when it’s Sunday Night ESPN baseball and you have a game in Baltimore the next night.  The Red Sox out-lasted the Rays in 16 innings last night/this morning, beating the Rays 1-0 on Dustin Pedroia’s 2-out single.  Josh Reddick led off the inning with [...]
