Lester, who normally handcuffs the Orioles whenever he pitches, went seven innings giving up eight hits, all four earned runs, three walks, and three strikeouts. Miguel Gonzalez earned the win in his pitching ...

Baltimore Orioles closer Jim Johnson had a 25-game save streak dating back to August of last season going into this game but it was soon broken up by Red Sox catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia. With ...

Red Sox At The Break On Top
Posted on 15 Jul 2011 by "Baseball Brenda" Sepanek.
I apologize for disappearing the last TWO months. The Bruins fully redirected my focus this spring. Not in my wildest dreams did I expect to be sitting at an ice rink deep into June. I was fortunate to attend Game 7 vs. Montreal, Game 4 vs. Philly, Game 2 vs. Tampa Bay and Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Finals. I got into Game 6 FREE, by being my outgoing self and talking to a stranger next to me at...

Angels not lacking, even in the face of the monster
Posted on 5 May 2011 by Bill Mahoney.
Oh I was mad. 30 games in to the season, and I was fuming. Are the Angels scared of the Boston Red Sox. They lost 4 straight home games to the Sox, and had lost their first 2 in Bean town. Scared was the only word that came to mind. It reminded me being in high school and being nervous around girls. Things that would normally be easy, became unbelievably hard. The Angels pounded out 13 hits in ...

O’s Pitching Bests Red Sox
Posted on 29 Apr 2011 by Sven Jenkins.
The Orioles entered their mid-week series with the Red Sox as losers of two of their last 13 games. Meanwhile, the Sox were coming off a four-game sweep of the Angels that included two shutouts. The O’s are already 0-4 against the hated 1st place Yankees and desperately needed a couple of W’s to stay close to .500. Thanks to Zach Britton and Jeremy Guthrie, they did just that. Britton ...

Home Sweet Home Is Just What The Red Sox Need…Badly!
Posted on 8 Apr 2011 by "Baseball Brenda" Sepanek.
I know I promised you a pitching outlook for the 2011 season, but instead I spent all week looking for tickets to opening day. Having no luck, I decided to take matters in my own hands and attended a “ticket giveaway” at a local bar. I rounded up my friend Bob, and we set out last night determined to win those tickets. Guess what, we are going to Opening Day! Yes, the Red Sox are ...

2011 MLB Preview: Looking at Adrian Gonzalez and the Boston Red Sox on Paper
Posted on 30 Mar 2011 by Adrian Fedkiw.
The Red Sox had the most disappointing season of any team in baseball a year ago. General Manager Theo Epstein went out and was extremely aggressive in the offseason. They went out and acquired Adrian Gonzalez via trade before the winter meetings. Then they signed Carl Crawford to a seven-year $142 million contract. Boston also made some under-the-radar signings to bolster the bullpen by...

The Series Rewind: It’s good to be home
Posted on 9 Jul 2010 by Ben Fisher.
The Breakdown: Losers of seven of their past eight heading into the series, the Blue Jays (43-43) gained a nice confidence boost by taking two of three games from the Twins at Rogers Centre. After a 7-6 loss on Tuesday that seemed to signal a prolonging of the team’s woes, the Jays picked up a quirky 6-5 win and then clinched the series by cruising to an 8-1 victory yesterday. My Thoughts: We...

Help Wanted: Red Sox Need Healthy Players
Posted on 3 Jul 2010 by "Baseball Brenda" Sepanek.
Can it get any worse? The Red Sox players are dropping like flies. Just when things were looking up and they were making a move in the standings, WHAM…they were halted with broken bone after broken bone. After sweeping the LA Dodgers the Sox set out west. First stop was Colorado where they lost their first series since May 16. They managed to stay healthy but their egos were damaged pretty ba...
