Contradiction
editIn the section #"The Longest Game", it says the game got suspended at 4:07AM. In the article Longest professional baseball game, it says the game got suspended at 4:09AM. Which one is right? Yeom0609 22:58, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

There needs to be a distinction between the AA and AAA
editI may be splitting hairs here but I think that in the lead paragraph and in the info box that it should be clear that the two Pawtucket Red Sox teams (AA and AAA) were two entirely separate entities with no connection to each other except for the name. A casual reader might not understand this. I guess no one wants to do a separate article for each team.__209.179.60.161 (talk) 16:58, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
New Logo

Worcester
editNow that the 2021 move to Worcester, new ballpark (Polar Park), new name (Worcester Red Sox), and new nickname (WooSox) are all confirmed, should Worcester Red Sox be split out as a new article (either now or in the future) or would it be better to stick with a single article (this one) and rename it in 2021? "Worcester Red Sox" currently redirects to a sub-section of this article. Franchise ownership will remain the same (e.g. Larry Lucchino) but everything else changes. @Muboshgu and Yankees10: input welcome, especially insight on how similar prior events have been handled. Thanks. Dmoore5556 (talk) 03:04, 26 November 2019 (UTC)
- Split to Worcester Red Sox. This is what we've done recently with Potomac Nationals → Fredericksburg Nationals and New Orleans Baby Cakes → Wichita Wind Surge. NatureBoyMD (talk) 21:24, 26 November 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks, that was helpful. Worcester Red Sox has now been split out. Dmoore5556 (talk) 07:07, 1 December 2019 (UTC)
The account of the "longest game" finish is contradictory
editRight now the text reads:
- Only one inning was needed, with the PawSox winning 3–2 in the bottom of the 33rd when first baseman Dave Koza drove in the leadoff hitter, second baseman Marty Barrett, with a bases-loaded single off Steve Grilli, the Red Wings losing pitcher who was not even on the team's roster back in April. Cliff Speck finished the game for Rochester giving up the final game-winning hit.
If the game was tied, and in the bottom of the 33rd Koza drove in a run with a single off Grilli, then Grilli would indeed be the winning losing pitcher -- but why would Cliff Speck (or anyone else) be needed to finish the game? The home team takes the lead in the bottom of the 33rd, that's it, the game's over. Koza's single would have been the game-winning hit. JamesMLane t c 23:46, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
- Yes, Koza singled off Speck, the finishing pitcher but Grilli, who had allowed Barrett to reach base, was the losing pitcher. I just corrected it. Waz8:T-C-E 03:54, 17 March 2020 (UTC)
Hall of Famers
editRoger Clemens is not - is not - in The Baseball Hall of Fame (SEE Wikipedia: “Roger Clemens” - “Awards and recognition” - “ National Baseball Hall of Fame consideration”). As you can see “he received 65.2% of the votes” in 2022, his tenth and and year of eligibility. The article goes on to say: “[d]espite falling off the ballot, Clemens is still eligible for induction through the Hall of Fame’s Today’s Game Committee.” 2601:240:C403:4260:0:0:0:27BE (talk) 23:59, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
- As the title of the table you are referring to says, it is a list of people in the “Pawtucket Red Sox Hall of Fame”, a team hall of fame, not the National Baseball HOF. NatureBoyMD (talk) 02:12, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
