    APRIL 7th LEHIGH VALLEY (0-0) at PAWTUCKET (0-0) 1:35 pm Lehigh Valley IronPigs RHP Zach Eflin (1-4, 4.57 in 2017) vs. Pawtucket Red Sox RHP Justin Haley (1-2, 2.26 in 2017) Happy (Belated) New Year – The Pawtucket Red Sox and their division rival Lehigh Valley IronPigs (AAA-Phillies) begin their rendezvous with destiny today at 1:35 pm at McCoy Stadium with their 2018 season-opener – a day later than originally planned thanks to last evening’s snow out at McCoy. Last night marked the third straight year the PawSox have had their season-opening game postponed, this time due to snowfall. In 2016, the PawSox home-opener vs. Buffalo was rained-out representing the first time Pawtucket’s home-opener had been postponed since 2003 when the first three PawSox home games that year were all snowed-out (April 7, 8, and 9 vs. Ottawa). And one year ago last night on April 6, 2017, the PawSox had their season-opener at Lehigh Valley against these IronPigs postponed due to rain. Pawtucket has now suffered six postponed home-openers in their 46-year history… 1983, 1987, 1998, 2003, 2016, and 2018. Day Dream Believer - The PawSox will now play a legitimate Opening Day for the first time since 2009 when they began the season with a 3:05 pm game in Buffalo on Thursday, April 9 (a 6-4 win). Today will also mark Pawtucket’s first Opening Day afternoon game at McCoy in 28 years (before many current PawSox players were even born) back when the PawSox hosted Syracuse on Sunday, April 8, 1990 for a 1:05 pm opener at McCoy (a 5-4 Sox victory).

    The Boston Red Sox Sunday, April 26, 2020 * The Boston Globe Baseball websites have taken a hit Peter Abraham Tim Dierkes and Sean Forman changed baseball with their ideas, creating websites that made it easier for fans, executives, players, agents, and journalists to follow and appreciate the sport. Now, with baseball indefinitely shut down because of the coronavirus, they’re trying to survive. “It’s been very stressful time to run a business,” said Forman, who owns Baseball-Reference.com, part of the Sports Reference family of sites. “You’re trying to do right by your employees and their families. Nobody saw this coming.” Dierkes is the founder and owner of MLBTradeRumors.com, a site that reports on the latest transactions and gossip from around the game. Walk around a major league clubhouse close to the trade deadline in July and you’ll find many of the players and most of the reporters frantically checking the site’s phone app for the latest news. Outside of MLB.com, MLB Trade Rumors and Baseball Reference are the two most popular baseball sites on the web. In normal times, MLBTR would be getting an average of 1 million page views a day. That’s down by more than 40 percent, and advertising revenue has dropped by 50 percent. “It’s a double whammy,” said Dierkes, who has three full-time employees. “It’s devastating for the business.” The same is generally true for Baseball Reference, which during the season generates 1.5 million page views daily. The site, which started in 2000 as a hobby for Forman, has grown into a company with 11 full- time employees.
