“The game has been over for an hour now and as of yet, CB Bucknor has yet to blow another call.” So quipped newly ensconced Red Sox beat reporter Peter Abraham via the Globe, not quite blaming the veteran umpire for Boston’s 5-0 loss to the Angels in Game One Of the ALDS, but giving him plenty of credit just the same (“neither of those calls cost the Red Sox the game given how well John Lackey pitched. But the first caused Jon Lester to throw six extra pitches in the fourth inning and the second led to him having to get an extra out in the sixth”). Pointed though Abraham’s criticism may be, there’s no reason to believe the former Journal News scribe had anything to do with hasty revisions to Bucknor’s Wikipedia page that briefly appeared Thursday night.
