We knew he could hit but boy can the kid cover some ground in left field. Wonderboy Andrew Benintendi continues to awe Red Sox fans, who are oh so thankful that their fearless GM didn’t deal the rookie for any deadline trade baggage. If you haven’t seen the catch yet, prepare to be amazed. It’s…

There’s no denying the fact that three-time all-star Hanley Ramirez’s first season back in Boston didn’t go too well.
