COMMENTARY
The Astros series. Again.
Just saying “The Kyle Barraclough Game” might not ring a bell for enough of you, even in a region invested enough for Darnell McDonald and Deven Marrero to land post-career NESN gigs as Red Sox notables. Goodness, Jeff Plympton‘s impression of Walpole Joe Morgan got referenced on Sunday’s radio broadcast. Your grandpa’s dungarees aren’t that old.
Even if you don’t remember Barraclough’s name, I suspect you remember the moment. Last Aug. 28, the Red Sox, fifth in the chase for three wild cards, welcomed Houston to Fenway on a Monday night to begin a massive series.
