About Our Boston Red Sox More than half of the 2013 Major League Baseball season has already been played. The All-Star game has already been played, and the American League won it. Now we can seriously consider the possibility of reaching various objectives that we had for the Red Sox this year. 1. End the 2012 Nightmare Season for the Red Sox: Just 69 Wins With the  Boston Red Sox current record  of 59 wins and 39 losses (before Saturday's game) and a score of +32.8 on the UBWS (#UnlessBigWinningStreak) scale, the Red Sox are ten (10) games away from the amount of wins that the team had all last year. After we reach this objective, we can begin to walk on a road of hope for this year's team. 2. Reach Our 2013 Objective for the Red Sox: 81 wins Our preseason hope for this team was to have a season's record of 81 wins and 81 losses. 3. Do Better Than the 2011 Collapse of the Red Sox: 90 Wins In the midst of the 2011 despair caused by not playing well in Septe...
