Red Sox Wrap: Boston’s Offense Can’t Heat Up Again In 2-1 Loss To Padres
Share this: Another day, another poor offensive showing for Boston. The Red Sox dropped their second consecutive one-run game Monday against the San Diego Padres in what was a good day for starter Drew Pomeranz and his relievers but a rough one for Boston’s hitters. Padres starter Edwin Jackson struck out 11 Red Sox, and their relievers struck out three more as Boston’s bats went cold again after losing to the Oakland Athletics 1-0 on Sunday. And not even David Ortiz could save the Red Sox this time. Here’s how the game unfolded. GAME IN A WORDSlump. The Red Sox’s powerful offense has been anything but over the past two games. In Boston’s last 18 innings, the team has scored one run. IT WAS OVER WHEN …The Red Sox

David Ortiz Hits 534th Career Home Run, Ties Jimmie Foxx On All-Time List
Share this: BOSTON — David Ortiz might never stop producing. The Red Sox slugger hit home run No. 31 off Kansas City Royals starter Yordano Ventura on Sunday with a solo shot to the center field triangle at Fenway Park. It was Ortiz’s 534th career homer, tying former Red Sox Jimmie Foxx for 18th on the all-time list. Ortiz’s bomb also got out of the yard in one of the most unique ways you’ll ever see.

Tom Brady’s Dime To Chris Hogan Highlights Patriots QB’s Preseason Debut
by Zack Cox on Fri, Aug 26, 2016 at 9:18PM 1,173 Share this: Tom Brady played full-speed football for the first time in 215 days Friday night, and he looked … well, he looked a lot like Tom Brady. After not suiting up for either of the New England Patriots’ first two preseason games, Brady entered early in the second quarter of New England’s exhibition matchup with the Carolina Panthers and immediately made his presence felt. Brady found Aaron Dobson for a 37-yard gain on his first throw of the night, and after consecutive drops forced the Patriots to settle for a field goal, he dropped his next pass into the outstretched arms of Patriots newcomer Chris Hogan for a 33-yard touchdown. Brady played four consecutive series before relinquishing the reins to Jimmy Garoppolo, who started
Red Sox Notes: Andrew Benintendi’s Insane Catch Was Years In The Making
The legend of Andrew Benintendi is growing by the day. The 22-year-old outfielder has garnered a few local headlines with his play since getting promoted straight from Double-A Portland to the Boston Red Sox. But he burst into the national spotlight Monday night against the Tampa Bay Rays, making a ridiculous catch to rob Steven Souza Jr. of a sure home run in one of the best plays you’ll see this season. Benintendi’s natural position is center field, so his stellar snag in left field might come as a surprise to some. But apparently the Red Sox rookie had been preparing for that moment since he was a young tot. “I remember when I was ... NESN.com
Patriots Joint Practice Notes: Training Camp Fight Nothing New For Bears
by Zack Cox on Mon, Aug 15, 2016 at 7:42PM 1,734 Share this: FOXBORO, Mass. — The mildest of mid-practice altercations is cause for alarm in New England Patriots training camp. That apparently is not the case out in Chicago. The Patriots and Bears engaged in several post-whistle skirmishes during Monday’s joint practice, including one sparked by Malcolm Butler and Alshon Jeffery that featured more than a dozen participants from each side. While not a full-on brawl, it was by far the biggest fight of the the Patriots offseason, which before Monday had only featured a scrap between center Bryan Stork and defensive lineman Woodrow Hamilton during organized team activities. The Bears, on the other hand, reportedly have sparred quite reguarly during their training camp — so much so that
