Jayson Tatum’s 2025-26 season ended the same way it began: with the Boston Celtics star in street clothes watching his team lose to the Philadelphia 76ers at TD Garden. Tatum’s absence from Saturday’s Game 7 was obviously more surprising. Even when he exited late in the third quarter of Thursday’s Game 6 with what the team initially called “left leg stiffness,” the issue didn’t appear to be serious. In fact, Tatum downplayed the injury after that Game 6 loss in Philadelphia, insisting he “wasn’t overly concerned” and that he expected to play in Game 7. On Saturday afternoon, however, Tatum…
BOSTON (AP) — Jarren Duran hit a three-run homer, Jake Bennett gave up a run over five innings to earn the victory in his major league debut and the Boston Red Sox beat the Houston Astros 3-1 on Friday night.Struggling DH Roman Anthony had three hits for the Red Sox, who had lost the final two games of their just completed 3-3 road trip. He entered hitting .208.Red Sox interim manager Chad Tracy, who replaced fired manager Alex Cora last weekend, got the victory in his first Fenway Park game.Carlos Correa homered into the Green Monster seats and had three hits for…
Alex Cora’s termination ended the short-lived tenure of the painfully awful hit celebration that the Red Sox began the 2026 season with. No matter what else comes out of the managerial and coaching changes, I’m truly appreciative of the ripple effect they had on this weirdly weak and unoriginal celebration. As I wrote earlier, the team had put me in the thoroughly uncomfortable position of rooting for a prolonged losing streak, simply in order for it to go away.One prolonged losing streak, six terminations, and one reassignment later, here we are.On hearing the Cora news last week, one of my…
Two makers of the widely used abortion pill mifepristone asked the Supreme Court on Saturday to block an appellate court ruling that cut off mail-order access to the drug just a day earlier, in what was the biggest jolt to abortion policy in the U.S. since the overturning of Roe v. Wade.Danco Laboratories asked the high court for an emergency pause on the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals decision, saying the appellate ruling “injects immediate confusion and upheaval into highly time-sensitive medical decisions.” GenBioPro, which makes a generic version of mifepristone, made a similar request.The New Orleans-based appeals court’s unanimous ruling…

BOSTON — On Friday afternoon, about 27 hours before the Celtics’ must-win Game 7 against the Philadelphia 76ers at TD Garden, the team posted a clean health update with “no injuries to report” for Saturday’s showdown. At around 1:30 p.m. ET on Saturday afternoon, however, Jayson Tatum popped up on the injury report with “left knee stiffness.” Then at 5:40 p.m. ET, the Celtics delivered the surprising news: Tatum had been ruled out for Game 7 of their first-round playoff series. So, what happened? How did Tatum go from off the injury report to sitting out the biggest game of…

In his four career starts at Fenway Park, Connelly Early has gotten a grand total four runs of support from his teammates. The Red Sox have lost those games by scores of 2-1, 2-1, 3-2, and 4-0.As bad as that is though, I regret to inform you that the Red Sox have been shut out each of the last three times I’ve been on game wrap duty (they haven’t scored a run on a Tuesday since April 7th).In other words, for all our sakes, it sure would be nice if the bats would wake up from their slumber today.In order…
