With Friday’s 2-1 win over the Miami Marlins, the Boston Red Sox have now won five games in their Green Monster City Connect uniforms this year. Incredibly, all five wins have been walk-offs, accounting for half of their 10 such victories this season. The first was on May 24 in the first game of a doubleheader against the Baltimore Orioles. The Red Sox overcame a 5-2 deficit to win in 10 innings on Rafael Devers’ game-winning single. The last four have all come on Fridays. There was June 13 against the New York Yankees (also in 10 innings), Ceddanne Rafaela’s…

EAGAN, Minn. — After two days of spirited practices against the Vikings, the Patriots probably won’t overload their starters with reps in Saturday’s preseason action. But head coach Mike Vrabel valued giving those players some work in the preseason opener, and it would come as no surprise if he took a similar approach in Minneapolis this weekend. With that in mind, understanding that the reserves will dominate in terms of playing time, here are five Patriots to keep an eye on… Kyle Dugger, S There’s no sugarcoating it: The former captain has had a difficult camp.

Since Justin Slaten went on the injured list on June 1, his recovery has been long and halting. It took weeks for the club to fully understand the nature of his injury, which was initially described as shoulder inflammation but turned out to be a result of a bone in his neck pressing against nerves and blood vessels. Now, after weeks stuck in a holding pattern, Slaten is finally nearing a return. The Red Sox right-hander threw his first up-and-down bullpen session on Friday, a notable step forward after a series of successful one-inning bullpens earlier in the week. He…

When will Boston Red Sox rookie infielder Marcelo Mayer return to the big league lineup? Mayer has been on the Injured List since July 24 with a wrist sprain. Mayer and the Red Sox medical team reportedly considered season-ending surgery at one point but ultimately decided against it. Instead, Mayer got a cortisone shot with hopes of playing again this season for the Red Sox. The shot helped Mayer with the pain, and on Monday, the 22-year-old stud resumed baseball activities by playing catch, per MassLive’s Christopher Smith. So, what is Mayer’s destiny for the remainder of the 2025 season?…

The Marlins swam up to Boston for tonight’s kickoff of the weekend series, and Sanda Alcantara was ready. The former Cy Young winner held Boston hitless (and without a baserunner) for four innings but eventually got bit in the sixth inning, when Alex Bregman doubled home Roman Anthony to tie it at 1. None of it would have been possible without Lucas Giolito, who managed to quiet most of the Marlins lineup including flash phenom Jacob Marsee. (Marsee your way back to the bench, son!)Anyhow the Sox held onto the tie until the ninth and then won it easily. That’s…

Boston Red Sox fans may be clamoring for Kristian Campbell’s return to the big leagues, but Alex Cora indicated a more patient approach. The Red Sox demoted Campbell to Triple-A Worcester on June 20 after a prolonged slump in Boston.
