We’re In!
Boston Soul | September 30th 2009
That was one of the most unusual clinchings I have ever seen. That was because, strangely, we didn’t clinch. The Rangers clinched for us. We lost, 8-7, to Toronto, but if the Rangers lost last night, we were officially in. But the Range read more

Boston Soul | August 31st 2009

All-Star Effort
Boston Soul | July 6th 2009
We won that one. Thankfully. Our lead over the Yankees stays at one but like I say, give it a few days and we’ll be back on top. Lester had a fantastic start. A fantastic start. Six and two-thirds innings of work, three walks, nine st read more
