BSJ Daily Briefing 08.22.17

Have no idea what Brock Holt was doing throwing to third after he double-clutched the sac bunt.

Did he think there was a force? Rafael Devers was still going to have to tag the runner. Just should have eaten the ball. Tough way to lose.

At least the Sox saw Benny rake again.

And with that, let's get this going:

LOOKING BACK

Bruins

Joey Mac had another exclusive 1-on-1, this time with fired Bruins coach Claude Julien.

Patrice Bergeron probably deserved a better NHL Network ranking at center.

Patriots

Breakdown of the defense vs. Texans: Mixed bag.

Breakdown of the offense vs. Texans: Half bad.

Now that they've unleashed the media hounds on the locker room, we can figure out the locker history of certain players. Always a fun read.

Red Sox

Oh man, the Sox let one slip away in Cleveland.

Drew Pomeranz is ready to go.

Live Coverage of the 5-4 loss.

Celtics

Training camp roster is set.
