FORT MYERS, Fla. – The second-most important sporting event between the United States and Canada on Sunday ended without a medal ceremony, but with another victory for the home team. In their first home game of the Grapefruit League schedule, the Boston Red Sox overcame an instantaneous four-run deficit, and hung on by the tips of their fingers to defeat the Toronto Blue Jays 11-10. The defending American League pennant winners tore into Brayan Bello in the top of the first, but Boston, with a lineup that manager Alex Cora said pregame could be the Opening Day crew, tied things…
FORT MYERS, Fla. — Thanks to spring training rules, Brayan Bello’s first inning of 2026 sunk neither his outing nor the game, an 11-10 come-from-behind victory over the Toronto Blue Jays. Red Sox manager Alex Cora initially pulled Bello after he struck out one of his first five batters and allowed four earned runs on three hits and a walk, and recorded one out. But in these games that don’t count, pitchers may come and go as their managers please, and so after the Red Sox tied things up in the bottom of the first, Bello returned for a second…

FORT MYERS, Fla. – Six weeks ago at Fenway Fest, Alex Cora said he was having a difficult time envisioning his regular-season batting order. “I’m not there yet, to be honest with you,” the Red Sox manager said at the time. “Usually, I have a pretty good idea around this time (in the offseason), what we’re gonna do, but honestly, I have no idea. I think we have to wait and see what the roster is gonna look like… And we get there when we get there, but for the first time in years, I really don’t know how we’re…

Jaylen Brown continues to compile evidence for his case as the best two-way player in the NBA. Brown generated season highs in rebounds (15) and assists (13) to go along with 23 points Thursday night as the Celtics built a big early cushion then skidded to the finish line of a 121-110 triumph over the Golden State Warriors. Brown’s points + rebounds + assists (PRA) total of 51 was tied for his third-highest output of the season. He’s now averaging 41 PRA for the 2025-26 season, the seventh-highest mark in the NBA.

No team made bigger splashes last offseason than the Patriots, who spent a league-high $192 million guaranteed in free agency and drafted in the top five. But even if their splashes are smaller this year, the stakes of the Pats’ 2026 offseason are just as high. The Patriots are back in the inner circle of NFL contenders, having zipped from rebuilding straight to chasing championships after a surprise Super Bowl run in their first season under Mike Vrabel. Even though their roster talent has markedly improved from a year ago, the Pats’ competition will soon level up, too, with a…
