Red Sox 15, Blue Jays 1: Beat the brakes off
Bob DeChiara-Imagn Images The Red Sox did it — they won a game. For the first time in a week, we can celebrate a Boston victory, and for the first time in the post-Rafael Devers era (tears), they’ve won one at Fenway. I think my highlight of Chris Bassitt’s relative dominance of the Red Sox was what they needed to be reminded of to break out of a nearly two-game … [Read more...] about Red Sox 15, Blue Jays 1: Beat the brakes off

Game 84: Blue Jays at Red Sox
Brian Fluharty-Imagn Images Perhaps a run will score today! The Red Sox offense is dead, and playing the Blue Jays, which, for some reason or another, have been their divisional kryptonite thus far, isn’t helping anything. I don’t want to be negative, because we all deserve a summer full of watching actually entertaining baseball games. Unfortunately, getting back on … [Read more...] about Game 84: Blue Jays at Red Sox
Red Sox 0, Blue Jays 9: Another garbo game
Brian Fluharty-Imagn Images All the Corpse Revivers in all the gin joints in all the world would not be enough to bring this team back to life. My doctor told me this morning that the medication for my herniated discs is known for causing cognitive and emotional issues.
