With the Red Sox heading home for the winter, we turn our attention to the rest of the postseason, and then to Alex Bergman’s decision on whether to opt-out, which is due five days after the end of the World Series. Unsurprisingly, Garrett Crochet would like to see him back in Boston: “Obviously, he was a big boost to the team this year. I think everyone’s got nothing but positive things to say about him as a teammate. That’s out of my control. Regardless of where he ends up — I hope it’s with us — but that’s a guy…

If there was one word to describe the opening week of Celtics training camp, it would be “fast.” Players up and down the roster – from locked-in starters to deep reserves – have talked about how Boston’s plan to push the pace this season is showing up on the practice court. Camp sessions have been high-energy and exhausting, with assistant coach Sam Cassell saying this has been the hardest training camp he’s seen in his 34 years in the NBA. Fast, though, should not be confused with finesse. One look at Payton Pritchard on Saturday was proof of that. Pritchard…

LYNN – Even when it feels like things just aren’t going one’s way, one should never give up on the task at hand. The life lesson has been a staple for Shawsheen Tech’s football team in tough games before, and the Rams never faltered Friday night. Senior quarterback Adam Caruso connected with sophomore Nathan Smith for a game-clinching 44-yard touchdown pass in the waning moments, as the Rams (5-0) continued their historic winning streak (19 in a row) with a stunning 14-7 victory over St. Mary’s at Manning Field. “Our kids just fought the whole game,” said Shawsheen coach Al…

Welcome to the Patriots Prospect Preview, our annual series where we talk about the club’s future picks before literally anyone else! I can’t believe we made it to Week 6. The New England Patriots are quite literally the only show left in town, but they don’t play on Saturdays… I don’t believe in apple picking, pumpkin patches and winery dates, however, which is why we’ve been talking college ball for nearly two months now — and we’re excited to welcome an entirely new audience now that baseball is over around these parts. If you’ve been paying attention throughout the last…

BEVERLY – In a game that came down to the final minute, Beverly defeated Danvers, 28-27, a feat that was accomplished through its defense. In dire need of points, Danvers put together a picturesque eight-minute drive in the heart of the fourth quarter. It was punctuated Jack Houston’s nine-yard touchdown sprint, and Danvers coach Ryan Nolan then elected to go for the two-point conversion to take the lead. Tension turned to elation at the Beverly High Stadium when George Frost and Teddy Fisher combined to stop Zachary Fultz just shy of the goal line, cementing the win for Beverly. “That’s…

HYANNIS — Barnstable had an impressive three-game start, but it came without a signature win. The Red Hawks certainly have that now, thanks to a dominant showing Friday night against 15th-ranked Milford. No. 9 Barnstable rose to the occasion and aced its biggest challenge of the season by throttling Milford, 35-6, at Leo Shields Field. “This was huge for us, not only this season as a measuring stick but where we’ve come in eight years. I think that’s our first win over a Hockomock team since we took over as a staff eight years ago,” Barnstable head coach Ross Jatkola…

The Boston Red Sox are a good baseball team … that could be a whole lot better. That much was evident over the last three days, which saw the Red Sox take Game 1 of their American League Wild Card series vs. New York Yankees thanks to a dominant outing by ace Garrett Crochet, only to falter in Games 2 and 3 due to a combination of subpar defense, a light-hitting lineup and a lack of pitching depth. The good news is that Boston should get a boost in 2026 from the returns of injured position players Roman Anthony, Marcelo…

The Boston Red Sox had a great season, but unfortunately it did not end on a high note. The Red Sox’s season ended in disappointment on Thursday with their 4-0 loss to the New York Yankees in Game 3 of the AL Wild Card Series. Boston lost back-to-back games after winning Game 1, becoming the first team in MLB history to do so under the current Wild Card format. While the Red Sox’s campaign didn’t have the ending their fans and players were hoping for, the future is still bright for Boston. With all of their young talent, the Red…

NEW YORK — The Red Sox took an important step forward this season, overcoming a litany of injuries to reach the postseason for the first time since 2021. But as the New York Yankees made painfully clear this past week, the Red Sox still have a ways to go before they can be considered true championship contenders. The offseason came abruptly for the Red Sox, who lost the final two games of the AL Wild Card series after initially taking Game 1. Defensive miscues, poor situational hitting and some bad breaks doomed the club, which must now re-tool over the…
