Happy Tuesday, OTM! I hope you all enjoyed the long weekend and day off from Red Sox baseball. Rather than thinking about what’s happening on the field, I’m wondering about your game day routines.

Today’s Reflections Ben Brown’s performance on Monday was tremendous. Six one-run innings on four hits and a pair of walks in a campaign to make himself the No. 1 out of ….. what’s left. No much else to say. Nice homer, Michael. Way to go, defense, to not let the two errors you made cost […]
