Dustin Pedroia To DL With Fracture In Foot; Angel Sanchez Called Up
With the worst month for injuries in most recent history that I can recall for the Boston Red Sox, Adam and I will be attending the game tonight against the Devil Rays. John Lackey is coming off another one of his Derek Lowe type starts where he took us for a wild ride only to [...]
John Lackey Shows Shades Of D-Lowe
