With their season on the line, the Boston Red Sox finally come alive for a thrilling game 3 of the ALDS

(10/10/17 10:00am)

After dismal, and borderline embarrassing, performances in games 1 and 2 of the American League Division Series, the Boston Red Sox exploded for 10 runs on 15 hits Sunday afternoon, avoiding a sweep for the second straight year and forcing a pivotal game 4 at Fenway Park. 












Boston Red Sox clinch division title for second straight season, head to October with high hopes

(10/03/17 10:00am)

On a cold and wet Saturday afternoon, Red Sox closer Craig Kimbrel took the mound for the 67th time this season, with a four-run lead and an opportunity to clinch the American League East in back-to-back seasons — the first time in club history. He struck out leadoff batting infielder Yuli Gurriel, allowed a home run to former teammate catcher Brian McCann, then let up a double to outfielder Cameron Maybin.  However, he regrouped and finally struck out pinch hitting outfielder Tony Kemp and outfielder George Springer to seal a 6-3 win over the Houston Astros, beating out the New York Yankees for the AL East title.



Team continues winning stretch

(09/19/17 10:00am)

The men’s soccer team was back in action this past week, picking up two big wins against Worcester Polytechnic Institute and Elms College. While WPI put up a fight, the Judges steamrolled Elms College in an embarrassing 6-0 route. Since dropping their first match of the season, the squad has reeled off four straight victories. The team, now nationally ranked No. 20 in Division III, is doing good work in proving their pre-season No. 4 ranking was no fluke. 




Cleveland Indians recent hot streak will be insignificant without continued production in October

(09/19/17 10:00am)

As the 2017 Major League Baseball season winds down, the Cleveland Indians have emerged as the story of the season. In this month alone, Cleveland, last year’s American League champions, ran off a mind-bending three-week stretch, winning a modern day record 22 consecutive games before a loss to the Kansas City Royals on Sept. 15. With only weeks remaining in the season, the timing of this streak may matter just as much as the record itself. In the wake of this stunning run, a critical question emerges: Have the Cleveland Indians peaked too soon?


Squad comes out on top in rivalry matchup

(09/12/17 10:00am)

The men’s soccer team’s sole action of the week came Saturday in a cross-town rivalry showdown with Babson College. As usual, the rivalry match did not disappoint, as the Judges and Beavers went back and forth in what proved to be Brandeis’ most significant win of the young 2017 season. After dropping their season opener, the Judges seem to have regained their footing and are living up to their No. 4 ranking.
