With all the bling, money, bat flipping and just showing off in the game and the egos many have forgot what makes baseball…… Baseball.
And it aint the showing off or the bat flips….. its the basics and fundamentals and thats what the Boston Red Sox are reminding everyone……
It’s not as sexy as OPS or HRs but a solid defense…… especially at Fenway goes a long way and if you can make an elite level defense at Fenway with one of the highest BABIPs of all ballparks you can carry that anywhere else as a blunt instrument to negate even some of the best offensive teams.
The ultimate defense becomes the ultimate offense……
