Red Sox Notes: Chris Sale Still Happy Despite Poor Outing Vs. White Sox
Share this: Tuesday wasn’t just an ordinary start for Chris Sale. The left-hander, who played seven seasons with the White Sox, made his first return to Chicago since joining the Boston Red Sox. Sale wasn’t very sharp against his former club, as he allowed six runs (five earned) on 10 hits over a laborious five innings of work. The Boston bats would bail out Sale’s mediocre performance, though, as the visiting club belted six home runs en route to a 13-7 win at Guaranteed Rate Field. The lefty is one of the fiercest competitors the game has to offer and was by no means pleased with his performance Tuesday night. But Sale was more than appreciative of the offensive outburst, which kept his spirits

Share this: Phill Scott’s race for Vermont governor ended in victory lane. His season racing debut at Thunder Road International SpeedBowl, though, ended in a ditch.

by Zack Cox on Tue, May 30, 2017 at 12:56PM 1,461 Share this: Buster Posey caught a tremendous amount of flak in the wake of Monday’s throwdown between the San Francisco Giants and Washington Nationals. His decision to hang out by home plate while Bryce Harper charged toward pitcher Hunter Strickland was, undeniably, not a great look. But what if, as Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports pondered Tuesday morning, the catcher’s refusal to join the scrap actually a show of support for Strickland, not a sign of disapproval? From Rosenthal: What if Giants reliever Hunter Strickland told Posey that he was going to drill the Nationals’ Bryce Harper — and that Posey should not intervene if Harper charged the mound, not try to prevent a fight?
