Red Sox Update
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- You’ve had a trip to Japan to start the regular season half a world away from Fenway Park and you’ve had to pull out your passport a second time before making your first visit of the season to your home field. You’ve had three ten-game road trips and only one homestand longer than a week. You’ve had one player going for a home run mark held by only a couple dozen players. You’ve had a young pitcher who had beaten cancer and pitch the fourth game of the 2007 World Series less than a year later top that with a no-hitter. You’ve had your best offensive threat sitting on the bench since the start of June. You’ve had 38 players over the first 97 games of the season wear a Boston uniform as several youngsters have found themselves on the shuttle between Portland, Pawtucket, and Boston. Any way you look at what happened in the first half of the 2008 baseball season, the bottom line is that if you are Terry Francona and the Boston Red Sox, you are a half-game in front of the Tampa Bay Rays for first place in the American League East division at the All-Star break and six ahead of the New York Yankees. Of course, that’s not reason enough to hold back our thoughts on who made the grade and who didn’t in the unofficial first half of the season.
