Boston Red Thoughts: Red Sox 3, Oreos 6: Crumbling like a Cookie… Holy Hell, WHAT is wrong with Jon Lester? Another pretty crappy outing–although he struck out 8 and walking NONE, which is a nice change of pace. But he threw 106 pitches (75 for strikes) in only 5 innings of work, and gave up 5 runs on 9 hits, in...

Boston Red Thoughts: Red Sox 3, Tampa Bay 8: Well, THAT Should Have Gone Better… OK, I think it’s time: What the FRACK is going on with Jon Lester? His last 5 starts have been CRAP (0-3 with a 6.90 ERA, and FIVE homers and 18 walks,) with this one being the WORST of all: 4 2/3 innings, giving up 7 runs on 8 hits (including THREE h...

Boston Red Thoughts: Red Sox 10, Angels 5: The 3rd 2 out of 3… With yesterday’s win, the Sox have won their last 3 series, and are currently 2-6 for the month of June.
Ryan Dempster got his 4th win, which creeps him that much closer to a .500 record, pitched 6 innings of great baseball, giving up 3 runs on 6 hi...

Boston Red Thoughts: Red Sox 2, Rangers 3: The Fickle Mistress… Baseball–where one day you can score 17 runs, and the very next, can’t even score 3.
John Lackey had another very good game, only giving up 1 run (a solo shot by Adrian Beltre–naturally) on 5 hits while walking none, hitting a batter, an...

Boston Red Thoughts: Red Sox 3, Skanks 0: And the Trend Continues… As I mentioned when we went to the blackboard on Friday, while a sweep was wonderful to think about, I fully expected a repeat of the April Series–2 out of 3.
And that is exactly what we got, keeping the Sox in 1st place, and pushing the Skanks down...

Boston Red Thoughts: Red Sox 9, Phillies 2: FIVE Steals! Holy Buckets! Why is it that when something THIS amazing happens, I don’t get to see it? The Jason Varitek smashing his glove into A-Rod’s Face? Blackout. That Clay Person throwing his no hitter in 2007? On a Cruise Ship. The Game where ...

Boston Red Thoughts: Red Sox 9, Phillies 3: Back in the Saddle again–In More Ways Than 1… Oh, and because my life is crazy, I completely missed the boat on Boston Red Thoughts 7th Year Anniversary–nearly 2 weeks ago (UGH). What a dummyhead I am.
So, yes, on May 15th, 2006, I started this crazy little thing called Boston Red Thoughts, ne...

Boston Red Thoughts: Book Review: Long Shot By Mike Piazza, with Lonnie Wheeler Anyone who has watched baseball in the last 15 year, no matter what team you root for, knows who Mike Piazza is: (Probable) Hall of Famer (He garnered 57.8% in voting his first year on the ballot), probably one of, if not THE best hitting catchers of all ...

Boston Red Thoughts: Red Sox 9, Tampa Bay 2: Needing to be doing THAT more often… I cannot even REMEMBER when the Sox last had a big inning like they they has last night in the 3rd: 8 runs, they batted around, and Stephen Drew hit his 2nd career grand slam to double the score in that inning.
What was even nicer is that no crazy ass pi...

Boston Red Thoughts: May 14, 2013: Doing the 180… OK, how do the Sox go from having a GREAT starting 5, with 2 legitimate Aces, a bullpen that is NAILS, a DH who is defying his age and injuries and hitting the cover off the ball, and everyone was playing hard and doing their job–and at the end of A...

Boston Red Thoughts: Red Sox 1, Twins 6: Let the Cluster Begin! So, after a spectacular April, which saw the Sox exceed expectations and end up with the best record in baseball
Then, we get to May. Holy. Hell.. We are 8 days into the month and already they have been swept for the 1st time this season, have lost 4 of t...

Boston Red Thoughts: Red Sox 3, Texas 4: Bound to Happen, Sooner or Later… Honestly, I’m surprised it took this long. The Sox managed to go a month without being swept, and then the 3rd thru 5th day into May, it happened. And while its not the outcome any of us wanted. WHY are people freaking out? Folks, this is the tea...

Boston Red Thoughts: April 30, 2013: The best record in baseball… Holy…Buckets!
As you know, my prediction for the 2013 campaign was that the Sox would win 83 games–and not make the postseason. And I was alright with that–as long this team was a team I could like. Because, as we all are painfully aw...
