| Breaking News |  | Tuesday, October 29th, 2019: Rumor du Jour; Boston's Thompson Demanding Trade Rumors circulating around town, say catcher Len Thompson is not happy at all playing in Boston and that the Red Sox are actively shopping him around. |  | Sunday, October 20th, 2019: Rumors Swirling in Boston; Watt Wants Out Rumors circulating around town, say shortstop Solly Watt is not happy at all playing in Boston and that the Red Sox are actively shopping him around. |  | Friday, September 20th, 2019: Smith Fires Shutout in Tampa Bay Victory On the hill Phil Smith stood out and was the master of the moment as he blanked Boston 11-0.
At bat the Red Sox floundered, fizzled, and failed to score.
"His fastball moves and he mixes in the slider," the Boston manager said. "He kept us off balance."
The Tampa Bay pitcher hurled a 3-hit shutout in an exceptional effort. He gave up 1 walk and numbered 2 strikeouts.
"I felt good," Smith said. "That's probably the best fastball I've had all season. I was able to locate it pretty well. They were super-aggressive, which helped me."
This year Smith has fanned 135 in 204 innings and collected a 11-14 record with a 4.72 ERA. | | | | Team Information | | Record overall | 86-76, .531 PCT | | Position in Division | 2nd, 19.0 GB | | Record at home | 41-40, .506 PCT | | Record on the road | 45-36, .556 PCT | | Record in X-inning games | 12-9, .571 PCT | | Record in one-run games | 24-23, .511 PCT | | Record versus LHP | 19-26, .422 PCT | | Record versus RHP | 67-50, .573 PCT | | Record last 10 games | 9-1, .900 PCT | | Record in April | 14-14, .500 PCT | | Record in May | 13-14, .481 PCT | | Record in June | 11-15, .423 PCT | | Record in July | 16-11, .593 PCT | | Record in August | 13-14, .481 PCT | | Record in September | 17-8, .680 PCT | | Record in October | 2-0, 1.000 PCT |
