Almost afraid to write anything seeing as we hammered them after their last loss. Since then they've averaged 7+ runs a game of offense and 3 runs allowed. Pitching has been outstanding, other than Seanez vs Atlanta & today.
Even if the competition hasn't been robust, they've still rattled off 9 in a row. That's impressive. You have to go back to 2002 for the last time they pulled that off.
How does this team stack up against the last 2? Take a look at the standings from the last 2 seasons at the all-star break...
2004: 48 - 38
2005: 49 - 38
2006: 45 - 28
If they stumble to a 4-9 finish, they will still have a better record at the break. Never would have thought that 2 weeks ago. A modest 7-6 record before the break puts them at 52 wins...
Coming to the Fens on Wed: Petey & his Soul Glow return to Fenway...
Will fans step up & applaud?
Or do they think his sugary sweet comments are insincere?
We'll be standing. Welcome back Petey...
