Here is a pic of Roger tipping his cap to the Fenway crowd. If you look closely I believe you see Larry Luchino applauding the feat and giving respect to arguably the greatest Red Sox pitcher ever. If this is indeed him I am more proud today to be a Red Sox fan […]

Word from around Fenway and on WEEI is that Manny Ramirez is out ill with the same illness that befell Pedro Martinez last week. He is not in the starting lineup and as of yet has not arrived at the park yet tonight.
On another note, Todd Jones has been sent down to A ball […]
Having made the cross country trips for work more frequently over the past year, I now have a new appreciation for the level of play that baseball players are able to keep up throughout the multiple road trips in a season. With the way that I currently feel, having flown back to Boston last […]
Pedro Martinez has been both a super hero and a complete baby since arriving to Boston. His ERA has never been higher than 2.89 for a year and has been as low as 1.74. There is no doubt that 3 years ago Pedro was considered the top pitcher in baseball with maybe Randy Johnson […]

I have yet to see the Rally Karaoke Guy video that’s been playing at Fenway Park of late. For those of you not familiar with the RKG, it is none other than an 18 year old Kevin Millar singing Karaoke to Born in the USA. For more information on the RKG phenomenon please […]
Its another travel week for me this week. I’m in San Francisco right now and am heading to the Angels vs. Twins game on Tuesday night. My plane touched down around two o’clock pacific time today just about the time that Derek Lee was launching a ball out of Pac Bell to give […]
Last night, the Red Sox called up right-hander Bronson Arroyo from Triple-A Pawtucket optioning Casey Fossum, who started in place of Pedro Martinez on Thursday night, to Pawtucket.
“First of all, this kid Arroyo certainly deserves the opportunity,” Red Sox manager Grady Little said. “He’s had an outstanding year at Pawtucket, he’s done a great job […]
With a huge win last night that saw the offense put up numbers for Casey Fossum that an ill Pedro Martinez would have loved to have supporting him at various points this season, the Red Sox beat and beat up on A’s rookie phenom Rich Harden. While Fossum gave you the five innings and […]
