If there’s any game in which the Red Sox need everyone to be on their A-game, it’s this one. The free fall post Roman injury isn’t doing anyone any favors—and with the Yankees and Blue Jays playing a series, should have been a chance to gain ground on either opponent. Instead, it feels like we’re going to end up in the hunt for the final Wild Card spot. Can Bello help right the ship or will the Sox keep feeling the venom from the Dbacks?⚾️ First Pitch: 4:10pm EDT — Chase Field, Phoenix, AZ Source link

In four games since their forced exile from the Roman (Anthony) Empire, the Red Sox haven’t been the same. They flew to Arizona to face a sub-.500 Diamondbacks team, and spent nearly the entire weekend struggling. Until the late innings on Sunday, when the offense finally found its spark again and staved off a sweep with a 7-4 win, 600th victory of Alex Cora’s managerial career. Ryne Nelson became the fourth opposing starter in a row to hold the Boston bats to one run over six innings. Beginning in the second, the Red Sox put the leadoff man on three…

UNC head coach Bill Belichick confirmed reports that Patriots scouts are banned from Tar Heels practices Saturday after earning his first win in college football. “It’s clear I’m not welcome there at their facility. So they’re not welcome at ours,” Belichick said. “It’s pretty simple.” Belichick was at Gillette Stadium last June for Tom Brady’s retirement ceremony. He was not on hand for Brady’s statue unveiling this summer. Patriots owner Robert Kraft recently said he wants to build a statue for Belichick after the coach’s career is over. A UNC athletics source told the Herald this week, “Why would we…

A recent exercise reflected just how much the Boston Red Sox bolstered their roster last offseason. Boston made several key acquisitions entering the 2025 season. MLB.com’s Thomas Harrigan recognized three of them when ranking the top-10 offseason additions. Harrigan placed the Aroldis Chapman signing ninth, which some fans may argue is too low amid the closer’s dominant stretch. Alex Bregman resides one spot higher, and Harrigan named Garrett Crochet the No. 1 offseason move. Crochet drew the top spot over the New York Mets signing Juan Soto, the San Diego Padres signing former Red Sox starting pitcher Nick Pivetta and…

The expectation is now reality: Patriots cornerback Christian Gonzalez will not play in New England’s season opener against the Raiders. Gonzalez has been sidelined since July 28 with a hamstring injury. Missing your most talented defender isn’t the best way to start the season. Especially with “terrific” skill players on the other side of the ball, which is how Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel referred to the group led by First Team All-Pro tight end Brock Bowers, rookie running back Ashton Jeanty and wide receiver Jakobi Meyers. “Everybody’s got to be ready to go,” Vrabel said at Gillette Stadium on…

Realignment is coming to Major League Baseball. It’s not a matter of if, but when. At some point in the next decade MLB is going to expand to 32 teams. Commissioner Rob Manfred has said in the past he hopes to have the two new clubs chosen by the time he retires in 2029, and recently at the Little League Classic he suggested that moment would be a good opportunity for the league to geographically realign its divisions. Rob Manfred says that MLB could geographically re-align if the league expands (via @ESPN) pic.twitter.com/w1g510LIUS — SNY (@SNYtv) August 18, 2025 “I…

Former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick is now a winner at the college football level! Belichick’s North Carolina Tar Heels entered the W column on Saturday with a 20-3 victory over the Charlotte 49ers, a football program that has only been in existence since 2013. But hey, a win is a win. Wondering if any NFL scouts were in the bleachers for the game? Don’t lose any sleep over it.  Belichick made headlines this week for banning Patriots scouts from his Tar Heel practices, a move that was universally graded by pundits as a petty one. The Athletic’s…
