The Red Sox beat the Reds 10-3 at Fenway.
The Boston Red Sox like home cooking and last night beat the Cincinatti Reds 10-3 on the night that the Red Sox dubbed the left field foul pole the Fisk Pole in memory of Carlton's terrific home run thirty years ago in the 1975 World Series. Reds' starter, southpaw Eric Milton deserved a better fate...

The Red Sox lost 8-1 yesterday against the Baltimore
Orioles. The loss left the Sox four games behind the surprisingly strong Orioles in the AL East standings but they are at least tied with the New York Yankees for second place. The Sox took two out of three from the Yankees in New York over the weekend so that is not so bad. They have a chance to...

The Sox won three out of four from the Oakland As last
night as Scott Hattieberg made a costly error that helped the Sox to a 7-5 victory that came despite the Sox mustering only four hits. Oakland has seemed to stumble on hard times and the Sox are the beneficiaires of their struggles. The Sox are still 2.5 games behind the Baltimore Orioles and ahead...

The Sox won their second straight game from the
Oakland As last night. Kevin Millar hit a game ending home run in the ninth to give the Sox the 3-2 win. It was fitting that Millar hit that home run because his fielding error at first base resulted in the As scoring runs earlier in the game. Millar was being fit to wear the goats horns that old...

The Sox split with The Mariners.
The Red Sox bumped along in their season yesterday as they split their doubleheader with the Seatlle Mariners. The Sox are two and a half games behind the Baltimore Orioles, and the way they are playing, they are probably lucky they are not any worse than that. A Double A rookie named Cla Meredith...

The Red Sox are not going anywhere fast.
They lost another game last night, this time to the Texas Rangers and have fallen to 11-11 to start off the season, their worst start since 1999. Johnny Damon did not realize that manager Terry Francona was suspended for this game until the second inning. The Sox are not playing like a team...

The Red Sox blew another one Tuesday night.
Ahead 5-1, the Red Sox failed to secure that lead and ended up losing to the Baltimore Orioles 11-8 because the Os erupted for two 4 run rallies late in the game. Keith Foulke blew an 8-7 lead in the eighth and that put the game beyond the reach of the Sox. The Sox are blowing too many leads that...

The Red Sox survived a couple of beanball incidents in which
both Devil Rays and the Red Sox were hit or thrown at to take a rout from the Devil Rays at Tampa Bay Sunday afternoon 11-3. Jay Payton replaced Trot Nixon who got heaved after a Devil Ray pitcher thew at him, and belted what was perhaps the biggest home run of the game, a grand slam in the eighth...

Sox lose to Tampa Bay 4-1.
Tim Wakefield pitched a masterful game last night, but couldn't secure the win as Alan Embree surrendered a walk-off home run to Eduardo Perez to negate yet another night of good pitching from the Red Sox starters. Wakefield's knuckler was so effective that not even he had any idea where it was...

The Red Sox behind David Welles beat the Baltimore Orioles 8-0
Wednesday night at Camden Yards. This win allowed the Red Sox to tie Baltimore for first place in the American League East with a 9-6 record. Though strong throughout the game, Welles was lifted after the Red Sox scored three runs in the ninth because of the long lay-off between innings. Blaine Neal...
