So I get home from auditions (Arsenic and Old Lace, if you’re curious) and I see the score is 6-0, Sox, in the 3rd inning, and I am thrilled that Wake is doing so well, so far (we all know Wake can turn on a dime and give up 6 runs in a heartbeat). And [...]

Another great weekend at Camden Yards–remember when the Oreos were a great team, and a force to be reckoned with in the AL East? Me either… But the Sox are getting it done–sure, they are beating up on the hapless cookies–but these are the games they absolutely need to win…And so the season series ends [...]

I’ll admit, I had my doubts–sure he did wonderful in his last start–but that was the minors–but he shut the Angels (whom the Sox will more than likely face in the Postseason) completely down, throwing 6+ innings of scoreless, 3-hit ball, while striking out 5 and walking 3–AND all of hits was done on only [...]

Holy Buckets! Actually SWEEPING Tampa Bay! That hasn’t happened in quite some time, like since they sucked royally…so it was a nice change of pace. And the double header was nice, or would have been if Direct TV had gotten the scheduling straight–there was a game at noon and at 5:00pm…so they start the coverage [...]
