Francoma
I’m a fan of Terry Francona and have little doubt he’s the best manager in Red Sox history (or at least in my life time). For that reason I often cringe when Boston fans refer to him as Francoma. He’s brought two championships in four years to a town that had been the failure poster [...]
Boston Sleeps Through Seattle
How much confidence do Red Sox fans have in Mike Timlin? Look no further than to the reaction at Sons of Sam Horn when Timlin was brought into a tie game in the ninth inning Tuesday.
Ugh Timlin + Safeco = disaster
Everyone can go to bed now. Losing Pitcher: M. Timlin (2-3)
Timlin Time. Please keep all [...]
Red Sox Lose Ugly
There are good losses (coming back from 7-1 on the road against one of the best closers in the game) and there are bad losses; losses that go beyond the final score.
Two players forced to leave the game (Coco - stomach / Drew - wrist), unable to score with the bases loaded and no outs, [...]
Beckett Stops the Pain
Now that’s an ace.
After the worst loss of the season Josh Beckett quickly got the Red Sox back to their winning ways with 7 innings of 1 run ball. Impressive pitching against a very good lineup. Even more encouraging was the work of Hansen and Delcarmen in the 8th and 9th. If they get rolling [...]
Snatching Defeat from the Jaws of Victory
It’s rare that I’ll claim a game is lost rather than won, but it does happen. Example 1: Detroit’s 10-9 victory over Boston.
Papelbon came on in the 9th to try and protect a 1 run lead. A check swing dribbler, a slow rolling ball barely past the pitchers mound that Lugo fumbled, a bunt, a [...]
Schilling Getting Close?
Schilling could be close to throwing
When Curt Schilling spent a few minutes with the media on Friday to provide a progress report on his rehab, there was a sound and a pace to his voice that portrayed excitement and optimism. It is as if the big right-hander is getting to the point where he can [...]
All Pitch, No Hit
The Red Sox split the last 2 games of their 3 game series with the Blue Jays. Boston pitching continues to be lights out, their offense nonexistent.
Though he received a no decision Dice-K went 7 innings and allowed 0 runs in Boston’s 2-1 victory on Wednesday; his ERA shrinking to 2.52.
On Thursday Wakefield allowed [...]
How to Win When Your Middle Relief Sucks
Don’t let them pitch. Jon Lester threw 8 innings of 1 hit ball last night and the Sox offense scratched out a run in the bottom of the ninth to beat Halladay and the Blue Jays.
Over the last 3 games Red Sox starters have pitched 23 of a possible 25 innings (Papelbon and Delcarmen have [...]
Boston Swept by Tampa
A little alarming, huh?
Game one went 11 innings and ended with 42 year old Timlin giving up the winning run while a well rested Papelbon warmed up in the bullpen.
Game two was lost when Francona allowed Buchholz to throw his 110th pitch of the game which was knocked for a 2 run homer. Papelbon [...]
