Duuuuun Dun. Duuuuuun Dun. Dunna Dunna Dunna Dunna….SURPRISE! It’s that time of the year folks. The boys are back in Pawtucket, the season is in full bloom, and that means one thing and one thing only: The 990WBOB Weekly PawSox Update. If you are a fan of the PawSox and want to keep track of them then look no further. Here’s what you missed this past week.
Where They Stand
The season is still young but the games that you play in April can affect you come September and October. Currently the PawSox are sporting a 5-4 record, including a 4-3 record at McCoy and 1-1 on the road. Interestingly enough, they have the same amount of wins as the division leading Buffalo Bison (5). However according to the percentage points, the Bison’s .714 winning percentage trump the PawSox’s .556.
