The pressure was building the entire game. It was just a matter of time until things erupted, and they certainly did. In the third period of Sunday’s game between the San Jose Sharks and Anaheim Ducks, Sharks’ tough guy John Scott left the bench to fight Tim Jackman. The pair already had dropped the gloves early in the first period and earned matching fighting penalties. Round two turned into a full-out line brawl. Scott could face an automatic ten-game suspension if the NHL finds that he didn’t leave the bench as part of a legitimate line change, which would violate Rule 70.10. In the game, Scott received a ten-minute game misconduct for instigating and was ejected. Even Ducks

Vladimir Guerrero’s 15-Year-Old Son Is Pretty Good At Baseball (Video)
Vladimir Guerrero compiled 449 home runs and 1496 RBIs during his 16-year MLB career and probably still appears in pitchers’ nightmares. His son, Vladimir Guerrero Jr., hopes to dominate baseball the way his dad did back in the day, and he recently showed that he’s been blessed by a lot of his father’s athletic genes. At the age of 15, the younger Guerrero is already tearing up the cover off the ball. A video has emerged of the slugger’s son ripping line drives and deep fly balls off batting practice pitches. Guerrero Jr. already stands at 6-foot-2, 220 pounds and has plenty of years to grow. There’s a good chance he’s going to get some looks from scouts since he’s eligible to sign with
David Ortiz, Chris Archer Face Off In Latest Red Sox-Rays Rematch (Video)
All eyes will be on David Ortiz and Chris Archer during Friday night’s matchup between the Boston Red Sox and Tampa Bay Rays in Florida. The Red Sox slugger and Rays starter had themselves a little back-and-forth after their last meeting, when Archer didn’t appreciate the length of Ortiz’s trot after he hit a three-run homer off him. So will they bring the gloves out during this latest series? Check out Don Orsillo and Jerry Remy’s take in the video above. Next Article >> Jerry Remy On Koji Uehara:...
Kole Calhoun Robs Brock Holt Of Home Run With Incredible Catch (Video)
Brock Holt has been robbing major league hitters all season, regardless of which position he’s playing. The Boston Red Sox’s superutility player received a taste of his own medicine Tuesday. Holt tattooed a fly ball back toward the right field wall in the second inning of the Red Sox’s game against the Los Angeles Angels at Fenway Park. The deep drive looked destined to land in the Angels’ bullpen, but Kole Calhoun had other plans. Calhoun raced back, timed his jump perfectly and absolutely robbed Holt with an incredible leaping catch. The impressive grab deprived Holt of a three-run homer, as Mookie Betts doubled and Christian Vazquez walked before Calhoun’s game-changing play.

Youngsters Live Out Dreams Of Playing In Boston In Futures At Fenway (Video)
Win or lose almost didn’t matter for many of the players on the Lowell Spinners during the Futures at Fenway game Sunday. Playing in Fenway Park was a dream of many of the players on the Boston Red Sox’s Single-A affiliate, so just sitting in the dugout was good enough for some. “It’s unreal,” Spinners center fielder Danny Mars said. “Words can’t even describe it. This place — it’s history, it’s baseball. This park’s one of a kind.” The Spinners were winning until the ninth inning when they unraveled and ended up losing 6-1. However, some might be lucky enough to enjoy a victory at Fenway Park later in their careers. Next Article >> Peter Chiarelli Open To David...
Manny Ramirez Lightened Mood Throughout Red Sox’s 2004 World Series Run
BOSTON — Johnny Damon could never hit quite like Manny Ramirez, but when the former Red Sox teammates reconvened Wednesday at Fenway Park, at least Damon wasn’t rocking whatever that thing was Ramirez had on his head. “I’m just glad my hair still looks a lot better than his,” Damon said. Damon and Ramirez were back, along with the majority of the 2004 Red Sox, to celebrate the team that won the World Series and ended an 86-year championship drought. Despite the slugger’s ugly exit from Boston in 2008, the mere mention of Ramirez brought a smile to the face of every alum in attendance. Not surprisingly, the infamous diving outfield cutoff play – which Damon had some fun with during Ramirez’s ceremonial first pitch
