Wednesday night was a wild and crazy night at Fenway Park in Boston. Not only did the hometown Red Sox move back into first place in the American League East with a 5-4, 15 inning victory over the Seattle Mariners, which alone drove the city into a frenzy, they also turned one of the most...
The beautiful thing about baseball is you never know which game will provide a rare milestone or a moment that has never been seen before.
For example, I don't think anyone who attended the White Sox-Mariners game at Safeco Field last April 21 could have imagined witnessing Phil Humber throw...
Proving that even pro baseball players get a little scared of thunder, members of the Boston Red Sox and the New York Yankees were captured on camera during Sunday night's rain delay as a huge burst of thunder crackled above New York City. Their reactions? So great.
They jumped, cringed, took...
Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone affected by the explosions at the Boston Marathon. #prayforboston

Before the first explosion, it was a great day in Boston. It was Patriots Day, an annual holiday that aligns with the Boston Marathon and a Red...
The importance of managers in Major League Baseball tends to be overhyped. There's only so much a manager can do to affect the outcome of a season, or even a game. And there's only so much difference between every manager in baseball. In other words, no matter who managed the Boston Red Sox in...
He'll get in eventually, just like Bonds, (I mean MLB won't strip any individual awards they won like they did with Lance Armstrong). I don't really care for Rocket Roger, but I have a friend that says he's going in as a Yankee, just because of the World Series thing.
Looking to solidify their late inning bullpen setup, the Boston Red Sox have a deal in place to acquire closer Joel Hanrahan from the Pittsburgh Pirates in what will amount to a six-player upon conclusion, according to CBS Sports’ Jon Heyman.
It’s reported there will be one more player heading...
The Boston Red Sox need depth in the outfield. On Wednesday, they added some depth by signing Jonny Gomes to a two-year deal worth $10 million. Gomes played 99 games for the Oakland A’s last season. He finished the season with 18 homers, 47 RBIs and a .262 batting average.
Gomes is a good...
The Juice has concluded its fifth season of fun! Remember to stop by each weekday next season for an ample serving of news from the action, plus great photos, stats and video highlights.
Easier this way: Even if the Orioles hadn't fallen at Tampa Bay earlier, the Yankees would have won the...
Oh man, you have love the look on the face of this Boston Red Sox fan. It's the look of a Red Sox fan who just realized he helped the New York Yankees during a win that put them in sole possession of the AL East lead with two games to play. The look of the woman next to him? Yeah, she's having...
The Juice is back for its fifth season of fun! Stop by each weekday (and now on Saturdays) for an ample serving of news from the action, plus great photos, stats and video highlights.
Weaving brilliance: Jered Weaver punctuated a phenomenal season —*that includes a no-hitter —*with his 20th...
The Boston Red Sox are having quite the weekend (and season), aren't they?
After finalizing their stunning blockbuster trade with the Los Angeles Dodgers on Saturday afternoon, the Red Sox turned right around and announced that right-handed reliever Alfredo Aceves, who has served as their...
Real life interrupted the Chicago White Sox-Toronto Blue Jays game in the worst kind of way at Rogers Centre on Thursday night.
A fan sitting down the third base line was pronounced dead *at a Toronto hospital after suffering a heart attack in the seventh inning of the game. The contest was...
It wasn't long ago we talked about the youth in the Chicago White Sox bullpen — at that time it housed five rookies, including 23-year-old Addison Reed as closer.
With that type of imbalance and inexperience in one critical area, and with a division championship there to be competed for, you...
Over the first two full days of the regular season, several closers around Major League Baseball failed to keep leads in the ninth inning. The Texas Rangers are grateful their 37-year-old closer, Joe Nathan, wasn't among them.
Regaining some of the mojo that made him one of the best relievers...
What does science have to do with atheism?
What rocket scientist though that one up? Like me saying I bashed two rocks together in pond scum and failed to make life or dinosaurs so evolution and the beginning of life is false. Scientific proof of philosophy indeed.

Talk about some bad hops in Boston.
On Wednesday night, the Boston Red Sox denied a local report by WHDH-TV that pitchers Josh Beckett, John Lackey and Jon Lester drank beer in the home dugout at Fenway Park during games this season. The report comes about a week after a story in the...
