‘This was personal for me.’ Cam Schlittler’s motivation in Game 3 came straight from his own buddies. - The Boston Globe
"I didn’t talk to my friends for two days," said the 24-year-old righthander from Walpole who led the Yankees over the Red Sox in the Wild Card Series.

Not an auspicious start for the Red Sox here in Chicago. Gioloto walks first two, 3-run HR by Suzuki, then a double for Crow-Armstrong when the ball drops between 3B and LF.

Why do I think Marco Sturm can build a new culture with the Bruins? Because I watched him do it for Team Germany at the 2018 Olympics. So much fun talking to those who were there, and oh, also to the great Patrice Bergeron.

Patrice Bergeron and others believe Marco Sturm can do for the Bruins what he did seven years ago for Team Germany - The Boston Globe
Germany’s Cinderella run to the gold-medal game at the PyeongChang Winter Olympics was one few saw coming.

The sports staff at the @bostonglobe.com gathered this week to celebrate the retirement of amazing copy editor John Carney after 47 years. Look at this convo among legends - Dan Shaughnessy, Bob Ryan and John Powers. The amount of sports knowledge and journalism experience here is incalculable.

Feels fitting to have the story of this amazing young man be the subject of my first Bluesky post. Ben Abercrombie, soon to be Harvard grad. www.bostonglobe.com/2024/12/05/s...
Ben Abercrombie was paralyzed in his first Harvard football game. Seven years later, he’s on the cusp of his degree. - The Boston Globe
“Even after the injury, he was always talking about getting back up to Harvard, finishing his degree, getting it done,” said Doug Henze, a friend from Alabama and Harvard classmate.
