Sports Blogs: Boston Soul :: And It Continues
Okay. So. Mark Teixeira is a Yankee. When I first found out I did a double-take. Looks like the Yankees are their old selves again. Hell be paid $180 million over eight seasons. New York has spent $423.5 million in just over a week to acquire Sabathia, Tex, andAJ Burnett. Thats exorbitant. Thats just
Sports Blogs: Sedition In Red Sox Nation BostonNOW Mirror ::
Tonight looked ever so close to becoming a disaster. The Red Sox managed to mount a disconcerting ninth inning rally, closing a 5-2 deficit to 5-4 and having two runners in scoring position with 1 out in the ninth.
