NEW YORKâThe Red Soxâ roller coaster season took one of its sharpest dips yet Saturday, when the Sox followed up their most resounding win of the season with perhaps their most disappointing loss.

Julian Tavarez claimed he didn't feel any pressure in last night's start, though the Red Sox righthander's season might be reaching a tipping point.

The Red Sox' lead over the Yankees this morning is seven games again after quite an offensive showing in a 13-10 win over the Toronto Blue Jays last night at Fenway Park. Yet there is reason to feel uneasy.

David Ortiz's fly ball headed toward the right-field fence and for an instant, it appeared the Boston Red Sox would rally for another improbable win. Not this time. David Newhan caught Ortiz's bid for three-run homer at the edge of the warning track for the final out, and Baltimore hung on for a 9-7 win Thursday night that dropped Boston 4 1/2 games behind the New York Yankees going into this weekend's Fenway Park showdown.

Manny Ramirez banged a ball off his knee. Keith Foulke had a stiff back. Neither was available at the end of the game, and yet the Boston Red Sox keep winning.

Once the Chicago White Sox got going, St. Louis couldn&#039;t stop them from scoring. For the second straight day, Oakland didn&#039;t get anything started at Colorado.

Then again, no team had ever come back from an 0-3 series deficit in the playoffs, either. The Boston Red Sox will try for a 3-0 lead in the World Series when it shifts to St.

The Boston Red Sox looked at the out-of-town scoreboard and could hardly believe what they saw. The New York Yankees were trailing big at home against the Cleveland Indians in what would be the worst loss in the 101-year history of the storied franchise.

No matter what you want to believe, they simply do not take the losses home like you do. Certainly, they do not bring them back the next day, not the Red Sox [stats, schedule] nor

The Red Sox thought they were going to have to earn all their runs against the Angels the hard way. Anaheim allowed the fewest numbest of unearned runs in the Majors all season (36).

One of Boston&#039;s long streaks survived. Dontrelle Willis and the Florida Marlins ensured the Red Sox streak of greater importance did not.

Because so many members of Red Sox Nation are expected in Boston to celebrate the team&#39;s World Series triumph, the victory parade today won&#39;t be making any stops and won&#39;t culminate with a staged rally, either.

It's a relatively recent story, and a familiar one. The Red Sox had two big sluggers in the middle of their lineup -- one a lefthanded hitter, the other a righty, both .300 hitters, one a former MVP, one who would soon be named one.

The best matchup of the series, which by this point was the only hope for a competitive game this week between the Red Sox [stats, schedule] and Athletics, turned into another

Who has the edge: the streaking Colorado Rockies, winners of 21 of their last 22 games, who have had eight days to rest? Or the Boston Red Sox who have more recent momentum after coming off a dramatic A.L.C.S.?

This one felt like it should have counted for more. The brilliant blue sky, the barrage of first-inning hits off New York starter Kevin Brown, and the masterful performance by Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling seemed wasted somehow.

TORONTO -- Maybe the capricious forces that rule the baseball universe, the ones that so far this summer have dictated that 26 of the 30 teams in the major leagues would have won more one-run games than the Red Sox, finally are tilting in the Sox' favor. After last night's 5-4 escape over the Toronto Blue Jays, the one in ...
