Share this: Dustin Pedroia is one of baseball’s fiercest competitors, so you know he hates sitting on the sideline. Unfortunately for Pedroia, that’s what he had to do as he served a 10-day disabled list stint with a wrist injury. The Boston Red Sox welcomed Pedroia back Friday, though, and his return helped the Sox pick up a 5-3 win over the Detroit Tigers. Pedroia, as you could imagine, is “excited” to be back and is looking forward to trying to help his team string together some victories.

Orioles’ Manny Machado Rips Red Sox After Second Pitch Sails His Way
The Boston Red Sox-Baltimore Orioles drama continued Tuesday night at Fenway Park. A pitch thrown by Red Sox left-hander Chris Sale sailed behind Orioles third baseman Manny Machado in the top of the first inning, and both benches were warned.

Watch Dustin Pedroia Apologize To Manny Machado After ‘Mishandled’ Situation
Share this: Manny Machado probably had it coming after his dangerous takeout slide of Dustin Pedroia on Friday night. But even Pedroia doesn’t condone how his Boston Red Sox teammate dealt retribution. In the eighth inning of Sunday’s eventual 6-2 win over the Baltimore Orioles, Red Sox reliever Matt Barnes threw at Machado’s head, earning himself an immediate ejection. NESN’s cameras caught Pedroia and Machado exchanging words after the incident, with Pedroia appearing to tell Machado that Barnes’ actions weren’t in line with how he would have handled the situation. “It’s not me,” Pedroia appears to tell Machado. “If if I wanted to do something, I would have hit you the first time.” In short: Pedroia wasn’t OK with how Barnes chose to retaliate.

Terry Francona Hurled His Gum At Dustin Pedroia During ALDS Game 1 Intros
Share this: Terry Francona’s bullpen decisions Thursday night gave baseball fans a lot to chew on. But the Cleveland Indians manager still was able to have some fun before things got started. The Indians defeated Francona’s old team, the Boston Red Sox, in Game 1 of the American League Division Series at Progressive Field. Francona still is very close with several Red Sox players, though, including Dustin Pedroia, who played under “Tito” for six seasons from 2006 to 2011. So, just before Game 1 kicked off, Francona decided to engage in some shenanigans with his former second baseman. When he was introduced before the game, Terry Francona shook the hand of John Farrell and then threw his gum at Dustin Pedroia. — Brian MacPherson (@brianmacp)
