Recent Red Sox history is filled with moments of the team winning the true must-wins, taking the key step forward after nine decades of tripping on the step.

Mike Lowell's rehabilitation assignment with Triple A Pawtucket has come to an end.

Ladies and gentlemen, we have big news today. Resident Red Sox sideline reporter and journalism princess Heidi Watney has now been immortalized as a bobblehead, joining the ranks of bobblehead greats that include David Ortiz, Jason Varitek, Dustin Pedroia... and Mr.-freakin'-T . The plastic gimmick will be rolled out Saturday at a game for the ...

Michael Saunders lined a two-run single off Boston reliever Hideki Okajima in the bottom of the eighth inning to give Seattle the lead, Milton Bradley's squeeze bunt added another run, and the Mariners rallied for a 4-2 win over the Red Sox on Sunday.

Forget two wars, health care and the economy. The hottest political issue in New England right now is Curt Schilling.

The Boston Red Sox , Philadelphia Phillies and Detroit Tigers -- three very talented and highly touted teams -- have all sustained major injuries this season.

Marco Scutaro hit a tiebreaking grand slam in the eighth inning, and the Boston Red Sox wrapped up a 10-game West Coast road trip with a 7-3 victory over the slumping Los Angeles Angels on Wednesday, sweeping the three-game series.

After his team's 10-6 loss to Pawtucket Tuesday night, Mud Hens manager Larry Parrish had only one question.

Trade deadline, three days away. And this is roughly when the Boston Red Sox were supposed to pluck slugger Adrian Gonzalez from the carcass of the dead-and-buried San Diego Padres.

With only a mere four days away from the July 31st Major League Baseball trade deadline, not only will we see many trade rumors flying around, but we will start to see actual trades being made.

As we race toward the deadline, the time to make decisions becomes compressed; with that comes snap judgments, and emotion enter into the fray -- leading ultimately to some big mistakes on both a small- and big-picture level.

Bereft of speedster Jacoby Ellsbury, the Boston Red Sox are now showing "interest" in Washington Nationals outfielder Josh Willingham, according to ESPN's Jayson Stark.

Clay Buchholz is back. The young starter settled in after a rocky start to provide an excellent outing and -- with a lot of help from David Ortiz -- deliver the Red Sox a badly needed 6-3 win on a night when the bullpen was, once again, shaky.

John Lackey pitched into the eighth inning to win in his return to Angel Stadium, and Jed Lowrie's two-run double in the seventh put the Boston Red Sox ahead in a 4-2 victory over the Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday night.

Dan Haren had to leave his first start with the Los Angeles Angels Monday after his right forearm was struck by a Kevin Youkilis line drive.

A Rhode Island gubernatorial candidate has questioned one of the most memorable moments in New England sports history as he criticized a $75 million state loan guarantee given to a video game company owned by former Boston Red Sox star Curt Schilling.

You'll never guess who played in an actual baseball game yesterday. Jacoby Ellsbury started his minor league rehabilitation assignment, going 1 for 3 as the designated hitter for the Gulf Coast League Red Sox.

By now you may have noticed that the Red Sox have a few issues. For starters, they began yesterday five games out of a playoff spot and eight games out of first place, trailing both the Tampa Bay Rays and the New York Yankees, respectively.

It could have been a comedy of errors, though it's unlikely anyone in the Red Sox dugout found anything remotely humorous in Sunday's ugly collapse.
