Sox sweep second consecutive opponent with 7-4 win over the Royals. 14 hits, Porcello with the win to improve to 11-3. 2 games up on the Yankees, four in the win column. 5 games ahead of the Mariners in the league standings. 62 wins by July 8th. This team is smoking hot right now, 33 games over .500!

Back in the Day i was a big Carl Yastrzemski fan and really liked the bosox. I also
liked Bob Gibson and became a Cardinal fan.. Cards are my fav team followed by the bosox.
All this and ive lived in Oregon all my 61 years. And my hate for the huskies will not let
me root for any team in Washington.

I didn’t know you had to be from Massachusetts to be a Red Sox fan? Are you from Seattle? I'm a Packers fan as well. I will never ever root for any team from Seattle.

Precisely why I am not Seahawks nor a Mariners fan.

Sox win 5-0 over the Rangers. JD hits a three run homer to seal the deal. Bonus. Skankees lose first game of a doubleheader to the [gulp] Orioles. :lol:

I became a fan in 04, my friend watched them in 03 and I watched some of their games with him. Then in the offseason A Rod was going there so I was excited since I watched him with the M's. Boy am I glad that cheater didn't come there, and went to the spankees, and see Boston make history that same year coming back from down 0-3 on the spankees.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denny_Doyle

Doyle's major league career is perhaps best known for his role in the famous Game Six of the 1975 World Series versus the Cincinnati Reds, which featured Carlton Fisk's dramatic twelfth-inning home run that has become one of baseball's most iconic highlights. Doyle was involved in a ninth-inning play that baseball fans still discuss. The score was tied 6-6 and the bases were loaded with no outs and Doyle on third base when Fred Lynn lifted a fly ball to short left field. After Reds left fielder George Foster made the catch, Doyle tagged up and attempted to score the winning run. He was thrown out at home plate, which inadvertently helped set the stage for Fisk's subsequent game-winning home run. After the game, Red Sox third-base coach Don Zimmer told the press, "I was yelling 'no, no, no' and with the crowd noise, he (Doyle) thought I was saying 'go, go, go.'"[1] In a World Series that included five future Hall of Fame players, Doyle was the only player on either team to hit safely in all seven games.


And to tie it all together, I remember watching Denny, along with Larry Bowa, Mike Schmdt, Greg Luzinski play for the Eugene Emeralds, 69-70, against Steve Garvey, Davey Lopes, Ron Cey, Bill Russell of Spokane in the PCL.

Spent many a night in the cozy confines of civic stadium. One of the iconic homeruns hit there was
Luzinski's shot over the amazon bridge. Usually a load cheer would come from the stands but
all people could do was stare at what they just saw. those were the days
