Boston Red Sox 10-Royals 3, Buchholz just brilliant! - 09/25/09 07:42 AM
Clay Buchholz scattered five hits and no walks over 6 2/3 scoreless innings in his sixth consecutive quality start. David Ortiz homered and drove in three runs, Victor Martinez and Dustin Pedroia extended their hit streaks to 23 and 16 games, respectively, and the Sox cut their magic number to three. The Boston Red Sox head to New York to face the Yankees in a classic fall battle. It is going to be a great weekend for baseball fans at the New Yankee stadium.

Boston Bruins Unload Phil Kessel - 09/19/09 09:05 AM
Boston Bruins Unload Phil Kessel. Unable to come to contract terms with Phil Kessel, and confident they can live well and prosper despite the loss of his scoring punch, the Bruins last night shipped the right wing to the Maple Leafs for three draft picks, a pair of first-round choices and a second-round pick. Its hard to believe that the Bruins first game is October 1st against the Capitals.
