 Yankees - Red Sox Series Preview
Yankees - Red Sox Series Preview

 Afternoon Red Sox Delight - 7/19
Afternoon Red Sox Delight - 7/19
After watching last night’s Boston Red Sox game, I’ve come to a conclusion. It was just a bad dream. As Steve pointed out in a comment, it was like an NFL team coming off the bye week. They looked sluggish and while the time off may have helped them heal their nagging injuries, it didn’t do anything for their bats as the home bats seemed to have been left behind at Fenway Park yet again.
