Well, that was some goddamn baseball last night. . . that I did not see, because my days of staying up for 15 innings of West Coast baseball are behind me. But I’m pumped for those you who did, and I’m pumped for Mariners fans, and I’m pumped for Tarik Skubal, who was still the star of the game despite being on the losing side. Striking out everyone and their mother will do that.We get a break today to catch our breaths before the ALCS kicks off tomorrow night in Toronto. Talk about what you want and be good to…

MILTON – There is no such thing as an easy NEPSAC football game, especially now. With a talent like Qur’an McNeill, however, it can appear so at times. The Buffalo commit turned in another incredible performance, completing 17 passes for 202 yards and a pair of touchdowns Saturday as Milton Academy dispatched a tough Loomis Chaffee squad with an impressive 24-6 victory. “I think the key was hard work, consistency, and having fun out there,” McNeill said. “I know a lot of times in the first quarter, everybody has jitters. But it was very important that we relaxed, calmed down,…
WEST ROXBURY – Malcolm Mason returned the opening kickoff 87 yards for a touchdown and the Lawrence Academy football team never looked back. Mason added a touchdown reception on offense and an interception on defense, helping the Spartans top the Roxbury Latin Foxes, 27-0, on Saturday at O’Keeffe Field. “First-ever kickoff return touchdown, so it felt great,” Mason said. “I caught it, saw an opening, and hit it.” The Spartans (3-1) scored on their first three drives, building a lead in the first half that Roxbury Latin (1-3) couldn’t overcome. Mason capped the first Spartans’ possession with an 11-yard touchdown…
The Toronto Blue Jays will likely be without Bo Bichette in the American League Championship Series. Bichette has been sidelined since Sept. 6 due to a knee injury and was hopeful he would play in the ALCS. However, the star shortstop was running the bases on Saturday and walked off the field in apparent discomfort, according to Sportsnet’s Shi Davidi. “Bichette led off from first base, took off for second and grimaced after rounding the bag before pulling up,” Davidi wrote in an article published on Saturday. “He walked over to third base where Blue Jays bench coach Don Mattingly,…

BELMONT – Excellence in all phases of the game was key for Buckingham Browne & Nichols as it cruised to a 30-7 football victory over rival Belmont Hill Saturday afternoon.

For the first time since 2016, the Boston Celtics will open the new campaign without Jayson Tatum on the court for them. Tatum is still working his way back to full health after he tore his Achilles tendon in the playoffs last year. Typically, this sort of injury would require a player to miss the entire ensuing season, but Tatum has continued to defy logic with his injury rehab. Reports indicate that Tatum wants to return to the court at some point in March for the C’s. While he won’t be on the court to start the season, Tatum has…
FOXBORO — Garrett Bradbury thinks they’re close. The Patriots center has seen the film. He understands the difference between success and failure in the running game is in the details, and if those can get ironed out, he believes they can be a more productive rushing offense. “It’s funny,” he said, “there’s several plays where if we’re just a little better here, a little better there… First of all, a four-yard run is a good run in the NFL. But then there are eight-yard runs that can be 40. “We’ve got to take ownership as linemen up front because we…
