…with a sweep… This is what has concerned me for some time now–the Sox have been able to beat up the crappy teams (as well they should–there is a a reason why they are the crappy teams) when when it comes to the teams that have winning records–not so much. I will concede that the [...]

I love these kind of games—but only when the Sox are on the receiving end…On night that a lot less than 21 hits and 15 run (and 10 walks!) were needed (Josh Beckett was on the mound, after all) the Sox bats went crazy and produced a might fine offensive display…6 runs in the 1st [...]
