SF's Peavy left part of his heart in Boston

BOSTON -- Of the four cities on Jake Peavy's Major League resume, he has experienced the most while playing the least in Boston.

Peavy's 2013-14 tenure with the Red Sox transcended his 5-10 record and 4.48 ERA in the 30 starts he made for the club. He joined the team in a Trade Deadline deal, 3 1/2 months after the shocking bombings occurred at the Boston Marathon. The Red Sox were an integral part of the "Boston Strong" movement that rallied the city following the tragedy, and the fiery Peavy immediately got caught up in the swirl of emotions, on and off the field.
