SB Nation: Billy Hamilton is ridiculously fast. So fast that he stole third base on a throw back to the pitcher.
Edes: "The Sox haven't lost back-to-back shutouts since Aug. 7-8, 2009, when they were blanked in the Bronx. It's happened just four times in the last 20 seasons, again by the Yanks at Fenway in 2002, and in Oakland in 1996."
