After a lifeless Friday night loss in which they were held to two hits, and with the dominant Max Fried on the mound Saturday, the Red Sox badly needed the kind of dominant performance Brayan Bello has turned in against the Yankees throughout his career. Bello’s first 10 career starts against the Yankees were historically good; he entered Saturday in possession of a 1.95 ERA against them, the best mark by any major leaguer with a minimum of 10 starts against the Yankees since the beginning of the Live Ball Era in 1921. In three starts against them since Sept.…

At least one New York Yankees player is feeling supremely confident following two wins over the Boston Red Sox. The Yankees gained another game on the Red Sox in the playoff picture with Saturday’s 5-3 victory at Fenway Park. Jazz Chisholm Jr. continued to swing a scorching bat, notching his third straight multi-hit game by going 3-for-5 with his 29th home run of the season. Chisholm didn’t hold back when asked about the statement New York has made this series, per The Athletic’s Chris Kirschner. “That we’re the best team in the league,” Chisholm said. “I feel like any team…
Okay, these games count a little extra right now. Looking to Brayan Bello to hold down the fort, and the offense to step up. Let’s get after it—go Sox! First pitch is at 4:10 PM ET on NESN and WEEI.

Kyle Harrison didn’t think his option to Triple-A Worcester would last very long. After all, he’d been minutes away from starting a Sunday Night Baseball game against the Los Angeles Dodgers when the San Francisco Giants informed him that he was now a Red Sox, traded for Rafael Devers. The left-hander spent nearly three months in the top level of the Red Sox farm system before his new organization brought him up to the big leagues for the first time. Ironically, the Red Sox were in familiar territory at the time. The Athletics, on the move for the third time…

The Boston Red Sox have their most wins since 2021 with 14 games remaining. In 2021, they won 92 games and earned a spot in the Wild Card game. To match that total, they would need to win 11 of their final 14 games. The playoff format has changed since 2021, and one additional team qualifies for the playoffs, meaning it won’t take 92 wins to reach the postseason. The Detroit Tigers were the final American League team to earn a playoff spot with 86 wins last season. As it stands, the Red Sox are one game ahead of the…

We’ll have a much better idea by Sunday afternoon if the Patriots’ struggles in Week 1 were an aberration or if fans need to be prepared for another long season. The Patriots take on the Dolphins on the road in Week 2, and yes, the Patriots have historically struggled down in Miami. The Patriots have not beaten the Dolphins in Miami since 2019, when Tom Brady was still the starting quarterback. But they even struggled with Brady at the helm, losing 10 of their last 12 matchups in Miami. Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has never lost to the Patriots in…
Officially, it’s Week 2. Unofficially, this is take two. The Patriots stumbled at the start of the Mike Vrabel era last week, dropping a winnable game to the Raiders at home as favorites. Now, they’re headed to Miami, historically a house of horrors, with the goal of winning as a slight underdog. The Dolphins got hammered, 33-8, last Sunday in Indianapolis. Running back De’Von Achane only scored after the Colts had mounted a 30-point lead on the back of aggressive defense and a ball-control approach on offense. The Patriots, who blitzed at a 42.5% clip versus Las Vegas, are poised…
The Boston Red Sox put out an offensive dud on Friday against the New York Yankees. They scored one run via a Nate Eaton home run, one of two hits they recorded on the night. Lucas Giolito started the game and kept the team in it despite the lack of firepower offensively. His final line read 5 2/3 innings, two runs (one earned), five hits, six strikeouts and one walk. He used his fastball effectively, returning 63% strikes and four whiffs. His velocity was down about one mile per hour, but he kept the ball up in the zone and…
