Latest News
Nov. 9 1:52 PM PT2:52 PM MT3:52 PM CT4:52 PM ET9:52 PM GMT5:52 AM 北京时间-Boston agreed to a $5 million, two-year contract with Wakefield, replacing a perpetual $4 million annual club option.
Analysis: The 43-year-old knuckleballer struggled with injuries toward the end of the 2009 season, but he was 11-3 at the All-Star break.
Sep. 22 2:46 PM PT3:46 PM MT4:46 PM CT5:46 PM ET10:46 PM GMT6:46 AM 北京时间-Wakefield, struggling to control his knuckleball in a steady and sometimes heavy rain, went just five innings and left with a tenuous 8-5 lead in Monday's 12-9 loss to Kansas City.
Analysis: Wakefield is 2-3 with a 6.65 ERA in his last six road starts.
Sep. 18 2:25 PM PT3:25 PM MT4:25 PM CT5:25 PM ET10:25 PM GMT6:25 AM 北京时间-Wakefield made it through a Friday afternoon bullpen session without reporting any weakness in his legs, and Boston Red Sox manager Terry Francona said the knuckleballer is on target to start Monday at Kansas City.
Analysis: Wakefield has experienced a strength deficiency in his legs, a condition related to the back problems that sent him to the disabled list for five weeks and have limited him to two starts since the All-Star break.
Sep. 6 12:27 PM PT1:27 PM MT2:27 PM CT3:27 PM ET8:27 PM GMT4:27 AM 北京时间-Making his first start since Aug. 26 because of a sore back, Wakefield allowed six hits and four runs in six innings of a 5-1 loss to the White Sox on Saturday.
Analysis: It's unclear if the injury will hamper Wakefield for the rest of the season, but the Red Sox need him to fill a spot in their thin rotation. He had won his previous five decisions and the loss was his first since May 29.
Sep. 6 8:14 AM PT9:14 AM MT10:14 AM CT11:14 AM ET4:14 PM GMT12:14 AM 北京时间-Wakefield will start Saturday for Boston against the Chicago White Sox at U.S. Cellular Field.
Analysis: Wakefield, 11-3 with a 4.12 ERA in 18 starts this season, will be making just his second start since July 8. He has been bothered by a sore back. Boston manager Terry Francona said Friday that Wakefield threw the ball well during a bullpen session a day earlier and was feeling healthy enough to pitch the second game of a four-game series.
Aug. 27 4:46 PM PT5:46 PM MT6:46 PM CT7:46 PM ET12:46 AM GMT8:46 AM 北京时间-Wakefield returned from the disabled list and left after seven innings with a 2-1 lead, but settled for a no-decision in the Red Sox's 3-2 win over the White Sox on Wednesday.
Analysis: It was one of the best starts of the season for Wakefield, who hadn't pitched since July 8. He's 11-3 with a 4.12 ERA.
Aug. 22 1:46 PM PT2:46 PM MT3:46 PM CT4:46 PM ET9:46 PM GMT5:46 AM 北京时间-Wakefield will replace struggling Brad Penny in the Boston Red Sox rotation. Manager Terry Francona said Saturday the 43-year-old Wakefield, who made his first All-Star team this season, will start Wednesday night against the Chicago White Sox.
Analysis: Wakefield last pitched for Boston on July 8 and made his second rehab start Friday night since going on the disabled list July 21 with a strained lower back, left hamstring and left calf. In 5 2-3 innings for Triple-A Pawtucket, the knuckleballer allowed one run and two hits in a 2-1 win over Rochester.
Aug. 26 1:21 PM PT2:21 PM MT3:21 PM CT4:21 PM ET9:21 PM GMT5:21 AM 北京时间-Wakefield allowed one run and two hits over 5 2-3 innings Friday in a rehab start for the Pawtucket Red Sox against the Rochester Red Wings.
Analysis: Wakefield has been on Boston's disabled list since July 21 after straining his lower back, left hamstring muscle and left calf muscle. He walked one, struck out four and threw 56 of 81 pitches for strikes. Wakefield, who made his second rehab start for Pawtucket, faced only four batters over the minimum. He is expected to pitch for Boston on Wednesday.
Jul. 9 11:34 AM PT12:34 PM MT1:34 PM CT2:34 PM ET7:34 PM GMT3:34 AM 北京时间-Wakefield enhanced his status as a first-time All-Star by earning his AL-leading 11th victory to lead the Boston Red Sox over the Oakland Athletics 5-4 Wednesday night.
Analysis: Wakefield gave up three earned runs despite allowing 10 hits, struck out eight and walked one. The 42-year-old Wakefield is the second-oldest player to be selected for the game behind Satchel Paige, who was 46 in 1952.
Jul. 4 5:26 PM PT6:26 PM MT7:26 PM CT8:26 PM ET1:26 AM GMT9:26 AM 北京时间-On Friday, Wakefield made his 383rd start for the Red Sox, surpassing Roger Clemens for the top spot on the team's all-time list
Analysis: Though he didn't earn a victory, Wakefield gave up five runs and 10 hits in eight innings, extending his home unbeaten streak to 11 games dating to last Sept. 12. He is 8-0 in those starts.
Jun. 28 4:58 PM PT5:58 PM MT6:58 PM CT7:58 PM ET12:58 AM GMT8:58 AM 北京时间-Wakefield allowed three hits in six innings of Saturday's 1-0 win over Atlanta.
Analysis: Wakefield became the AL's third 10-game winner, joining Minnesota's Kevin Slowey and Toronto's Roy Halladay. The 42-year-old knuckleballer made his 382nd start for Boston tying him with Roger Clemens for the most career starts by a Red Sox pitcher.
Jun. 17 10:43 AM PT11:43 AM MT12:43 PM CT1:43 PM ET6:43 PM GMT2:43 AM 北京时间-Wakefield allowed two runs in six innings of Boston's 8-2 win over Florida on Tuesday for his fifth win in six starts.
Analysis: Wakefield's ninth win moved him another spot closer to the AL lead, and the Boston Red Sox think it might finally be the 42-year-old knuckleballer's chance to make his first career All-Star team. "I've been (considered) a number of times in my career, and hopefully I'm mentioned again this year," Wakefield said. Wakefield made his 380th career start for Boston, two behind Roger Clemens for the most in Red Sox history. He has 90 wins at Fenway, five behind Clemens.
Jun. 11 11:44 AM PT12:44 PM MT1:44 PM CT2:44 PM ET7:44 PM GMT3:44 AM 北京时间-Wakefield allowed eight hits and three runs in six innings of a 6-5 win over the Yankees on Wednesday.
Analysis: He improved to 5-0 at Fenway Park in five starts this year. Wakefield is not a great fantasy starter for a number of reasons, but he is tied for second in the majors with eight wins.
Jun. 5 2:47 PM PT3:47 PM MT4:47 PM CT5:47 PM ET10:47 PM GMT6:47 AM 北京时间-Wakefield won for the seventh time in 10 starts by giving up three runs and five hits over 6 2-3 innings in Thursday's 6-3 victory in Detroit.
Analysis: Wakefield (7-3, 4.50 ERA) will likely pitch Wednesday night at home against the New York Yankees. The knuckleballer has struggled at Fenway Park against the AL East rivals, going 4-10 with a 5.88 ERA in 17 career starts.
May 30 11:10 AM PT12:10 PM MT1:10 PM CT2:10 PM ET7:10 PM GMT3:10 AM 北京时间-Wakefield gave up nine runs over 4 2-3 innings Friday in a 6-3 loss to the Blue Jays.
Analysis: It was Wakefield's first loss outside of Anaheim this season. The Red Sox are not scheduled to play in Anaheim again this season.
May 25 5:29 PM PT6:29 PM MT7:29 PM CT8:29 PM ET1:29 AM GMT9:29 AM 北京时间-Despite giving up five runs over six innings, Wakefield won for the second time in as many starts in Sunday's 12-5 victory over the visiting New York Mets.
Analysis: Wakefield (6-2, 3.99 ERA) is scheduled to pitch Friday night in Toronto. He allowed one run over eight innings Tuesday night against the Blue Jays and is 17-11 with a 3.68 ERA in 49 career appearances versus Toronto.
May 20 10:17 AM PT11:17 AM MT12:17 PM CT1:17 PM ET6:17 PM GMT2:17 AM 北京时间-Wakefield held Toronto to five hits over eight innings as Boston beat the AL East-leading Blue Jays 2-1 on Tuesday night.
Analysis: Wakefield had won four straight decisions before allowing a season-high seven runs and 11 hits against the Los Angeles Angels last Wednesday. But his knuckleball was back, and he continued what has been overall an impressive start to the season.
May 14 11:51 AM PT12:51 PM MT1:51 PM CT2:51 PM ET7:51 PM GMT3:51 AM 北京时间-Wakefield allowed a season-high seven runs Wednesday night in an 8-4 loss in Los Angeles. He dropped to 0-6 in his last six road starts against the Angels and has a 9.30 ERA in that span.
Analysis: Wakefield (4-2, 4.03 ERA) had a 2.93 ERA in his previous six starts. He will likely pitch Tuesday night at home against Toronto. The knuckleballer is 10-7 with a 2.89 ERA at Fenway versus the Blue Jays.
May 8 12:21 PM PT1:21 PM MT2:21 PM CT3:21 PM ET8:21 PM GMT4:21 AM 北京时间-Wakefield gave up two runs in six innings Thursday as the Red Sox defeated Cleveland 13-3.
Analysis: Wakefield is 4-0 with a 2.65 ERA in his last five starts.
Apr. 16 2:34 PM PT3:34 PM MT4:34 PM CT5:34 PM ET10:34 PM GMT6:34 AM 北京时间-Wakefield took a no-hitter into the eighth inning on a day when the Red Sox desperately needed a strong start from their 42-year-old knuckleballer and finished with a four-hitter Wednesday in Boston's slump-snapping 8-2 victory over the Oakland Athletics.
Analysis: Wakefield got within five outs of the first no-hitter of his 17-season major league career, nearly becoming the second-oldest pitcher to accomplish the feat after Nolan Ryan.Kurt Suzuki broke it up with a one-out single to left for the A's, and Landon Powell had an RBI single later in the inning. Wakefield gave up Matt Holliday's run-scoring double in the ninth, but escaped one last jam before getting hugs and congratulations from each of his teammates.
