Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

Last night (Monday April 28) I was a featured guest on the WCVB’s Chonicle in a segment called “It’s all About Timing” revealing some of the ways I always manage to get Red Sox tickets to sold out games at face value.
Luckily, I have a friend who is a video and photography specialist and he [...]

This is No Time to Panic

Monday, April 28th, 2008

Trust me.
Yes, the Sox just got swept by the Devil Rays. (Wait, the Rays. Apparently the now that George Steinbrenner isnt’ conducting Yankees business in Tampa, they had to drop the Devil part of the name.)
Yes, Big Papi has a hurting knee, isn’t playing every day, and is hitting under .200.
Yes, we’ve had [...]

The View from the Green Monster

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008

How to have a great Patriots Day.
Step 1: Call the Red Sox ticket office on a whim on Sunday morning and ask them if they have Monster tickets for Patriots Day.
Step 2: Jump up and down when the guys says they have 4 seats together in section 1. Proceed to charge $650 on your [...]

The Rangers Still Have No Pitching

Friday, April 18th, 2008

The Rangers once again have no pitching to speak of, whatsoever. Last year, Texas had the 11th best pitching in the American League, with only the White Sox, Devil Rays and Orioles being worse. This year, they aren’t any better. You probably can’t name all 5 starters, and I’d actually be pretty [...]

Yankees Steal a Game

Thursday, April 17th, 2008

Though perhaps this should really say “Umpires Blow the Game.” There were 2 particular calls/no-calls that really infuriated me last night and in my opinion, swung the outcome of this game in the favor of the Yankees.
First, in the third inning, Manny Ramirez thought he had walked even though the pitch looked good, and [...]

Jed Lowrie Time!

Wednesday, April 16th, 2008

Oh, what a debut for the kid. Jed Lowrie got his first 3 RBI as a pro, and of course, the all important first hit (and no errors). Playing outside of his natural shortstop position, Lowrie look somewhat over matched at the plate, but was still able to put the ball in play [...]

Quite the Comeback Win

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

If only every game was this great. Jon Lester looked mediocre as always, throwing 97 pitches without getting out of the 5th inning. He walked 5 while striking out only 3 and was saved by the Sox bullpen and timely hitting, and of course, Joe Borowski sucking.
(Thanks to the Globe for [...]

Richard Bradley, author of The Greatest Game - The Yankees, the Red Sox and hte Playoff of ‘78, was kind enough to chat with me, regarding his work, his new book, and the rivalry of the Red Sox and Yankees in general. As the 2008 installment of this commences this weekend, the greatest game [...]

Its a Whole New Ballgame in Good Seats

Friday, April 11th, 2008

Last night I was lucky enough to score a field box seat to the Red Sox. If you are wondering how I managed this, well, it wasn’t hard. I called the box office the day they went on sale and bought it (A single seat, but who cares when you’re in the 5th [...]
