Major League Baseball season
Major League Baseball team season
Сезон 2005 года «Бостон Ред Сокс» стал 105-м сезоном в истории Высшей бейсбольной лиги франшизы . « Ред Сокс» заняли второе место в Американской лиге Востока с рекордом 95–67, таким же, как « Нью-Йорк Янкиз» . «Янкиз» были признаны победителями дивизиона благодаря их личному рекорду 10–9 против «Ред Сокс» в регулярном сезоне. Red Sox квалифицировались на постсезон как wild card AL , но были охвачены чемпионом Американской лиги Центральной Chicago White Sox в ALDS .
В нападении «Ред Сокс» лидировали в Высшей бейсбольной лиге по количеству набранных очков (910), попаданий (1579), парных разрядов (339), ИКР (863), прогулок (653), среднего количества ударов (0,281), ОБП (0,357), ОПС (0,811) и жертвенные мухи (63). [1] Питчеры Red Sox поразили отбивающих соперников с помощью 89 передач, что является наибольшим показателем среди всех питчеров высшей лиги в 2005 году. [1]
Межсезонье
Red Sox сделали несколько заметных шагов в межсезонье после чемпионата Мировой серии 2004 года. Команда вернула Джейсона Варитека, повторно подписав с опытным кетчером четырехлетний контракт на 40 миллионов долларов. [2] Аутфилдер Дэйв Робертс, сыгравший ключевую роль в постсезоне 2004 года, был обменян в «Падрес» на шорт-стопа Рамона Васкеса и левого полевого игрока Джея Пэйтона. [3]
Руководство стремилось заполнить пустоту, оставленную Орландо Кабрерой и Поки Ризом в шорт-стопе, подписав свободного агента Эдгара Рентерию на 4-летний контракт на сумму 40 миллионов долларов с опционом на 5-й год. [2] Этот шаг понравился болельщикам, потому что Рентерия провел очень успешную кампанию 2004 года с «Сент-Луис Кардиналс». Рентерия набрал 0,287 с 10 хоумранами и 72 ИКР в 2004 году .
The Red Sox front office looked to bolster their starting pitching by signing two veteran pitchers. The need for starting pitching was a point of emphasize due to the departure of Pedro Martínez to the New York Mets after 7 years in a Red Sox uniform.[5] The first pitcher signed was former Padres starter David Wells. Wells was coming off a surprising 2004 season with the Padres in which he posted a 3.73 ERA over 195 innings pitched at the age of 41.[6] The second pitcher signed was former Cubs starter Matt Clement. Clement was coming off a season in which he posted a respectable 3.68 ERA over 181 innings pitched.[7]

ALDS
The Chicago White Sox swept the Red Sox in the American League Division Series. The White Sox went on to win the World Series that year against the Houston Astros. The Red Sox entered the 2005 postseason as a wild card team even though they had the same regular season record as their division rival, the New York Yankees because they lost the regular season head-to-head matchups 10–9.
A crucial moment of the series came in Game 2 when Red Sox second baseman Tony Graffanino made a crucial error that led to the White Sox scoring three unearned runs in the fifth inning. A slow groundball hit to the right side of the infield was able to get past Graffanino and a key double play was not turned. Later in the inning, White Sox second baseman Tadahito Iguchi hit a three-run home run to give the White Sox a one-run lead.[25] Red Sox pitcher David Wells was pitching well in the game until the error. The error is viewed by many fans as having the Red Sox lose Game 2 and eventually the American League Division Series.
Red Sox ace Curt Schilling did not start a game in the American League Division Series after pitching in the last game of the season against the Yankees.
