Pass the popcorn: The Clubhouse: A Year with the Red Sox

November 19, 2025

Catching up of some entries that were in my “draft” box.

My initial response to beginning this eight-part series on Netflix was, this is kind of boring. And these guys curse a lot.

But on further review, there’s a lot to recommend this in-depth, behind-the-scenes look at one of the game’s most storied franchises.

Tops among them is a heretofore unexpressed look at the mental make-up of the players. An oft-heard description of baseball is that it a game of failure and if you can’t face that, it will eat you up.
