    The Boston Red Sox Friday, June 16, 2017 * The Boston Globe Chris Sale brought his A game, but Red Sox didn’t bring bats Peter Abraham PHILADELPHIA — Chris Sale had a game he’ll never forget on Thursday night, for reasons good and ultimately bad. The Red Sox pitcher had the first extra-base hit of his career and ran the bases like a giraffe being chased by a lion, his long legs taking him to second base on a double in the eighth inning and then to third. But Sale was left stranded, then he allowed a run in the bottom of the inning as the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Red Sox, 1-0. The unlikely victory snapped an eight-game losing streak for the Phillies and was their first shutout of the season. The Sox failed to sweep the four-game, home-and-home interleague series. It was the sixth time the Sox have been blanked, matching all of last season. They managed only five hits, struck out 12 times, and were 1 for 8 with runners in scoring position. The Sox open a three-game series at Houston on Friday night. The 45-22 Astros have the best record in baseball. Sale (8-3) pitched his best game in several weeks. He allowed the one run on four hits and struck out 10 with one walk. It was the ninth time in 14 starts that Sale struck out 10 or more. “Just an outstanding performance all the way around,” Sox manager John Farrell said. “He personally did everything that he could to impact this game.” Sale got through seven innings with 93 pitches and took his turn at bat to start the eighth inning.

    Congregation B’nai Harim Children of the Mountains Congregation B’nai Harim, P.O. Box 757, Pocono Pines, PA 18350/ (570) 646-0100 http://www.bnaiharimpoconos.org NEWSLETTER /DECEMBER 2017/ VOLUME 23, ISSUE 12 RABBI’S MESSAGE - DECEMBER 2017 Chanukah is not only the Festival of Lights, it is the Holiday of Rededication. As a holiday that falls at the darkening of the year, it holds out the hope of the return of light and of its increase in the future. As the holiday of rededication, it turns us back to times of action and gives us a space to rekindle our passions. And, of course, it has become the holiday of the “present” as well! Rabbi Peg In the Talmud there is a debate between Rabbis Shammai and Hillel, the quintessen- Kershenbaum tial sparring partners. Shammai thinks that people should light 8 lamps (they didn’t use candles in those days) on the first night and one fewer each successive night, thus clicking off the days of the holiday until no lights are lit. Hillel believes that we should never decrease in holiness, so he recommends lighting one more lamp each night until the holiday goes out in a blaze of glory. As is mostly the case, we follow Hillel’s opinion. So, when we kindle our chanukiyot (Chanukah menorahs), we look forward to greater illumination each night. Chanukah also marked the time that the Maccabees purified the Temple in Jerusalem and re- consecrated it to the service of Adonai, driving out pagan practices, clearing away unkosher animal remains and tearing down the statue of Zeus.

  • International League News & Notes
    International League News & Notes August 31, 2006 BUFFALO BISONS BISONS TAKE THRUWAY SERIES CAP: With their 6-2 win over Rochester last night, the Bisons clinched the 2006 Thruway Series Cup Championship. Each year since the Herd rejoined the International League in 1998, they have competed with their closest rivals, the Rochester Red Wings and Syracuse SkyChiefs, for a series championship that is named after the expressway that connects them all. This year, the Bisons went 11-5 against the SkyChiefs and already have an 8-5 record against the Red Wings. The championship is Buffalo’s fifth in nine years, also taking the cup in 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2004. ALL-STAR HONORS: Outfielder Jason Dubois was named to the post-season International League All-Star team on Monday. The slugger is closing in on a Bisons’ triple crown as he ranks first on the team with 21 home runs (T-7th in IL) and 83 RBI (4th in IL) and is just behind Franklin Gutierrez (.281) for those that qualify with a .276 batting average. Dubois also leads the team with a .489 slugging percentage, is tied for the lead with 52 extra- base hits and is 2 nd with 30 doubles. He would be just the third player to win the team’s triple crown in the modern era, joining Russ Morman in 1993 (.320, 22 HR, 77 RBI) and Benny Distefano in 1988 (.263, 19 HR, 63 RBI). QUEST FOR QUALIFICATION: Pitcher Hyang-Nam Choi has been dominating for the Herd of late, with only one earned run since July 27.
