Gerry LeBrasseur an ‘ironman’ in every sense of the word

Not long before he died, Gerry LeBrasseur’s daughter asked him what word best described him.  “He said he didn’t know,” said Michelle LeBrasseur Pedro. “Then he said, ‘Wait. Michelle. Say ‘determined.’ That’s it.”’ Pedro spent a lot of time with her father in the last couple of years, getting him to jot down some of […]

KRAUSE: What Duran had to endure was simply cruel

I was sitting in Fenway Park a couple of weeks ago, watching the Red Sox clobber the Chicago White Sox, when I began to notice a group of kids riding Jarren Duran pretty intensely. Duran, as you may recall, came clean in a Netflix documentary about his mental health issues, including his failed suicide attempt […]

KRAUSE: Where do the Red Sox hide the broken mirror?

Last Friday night, Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas fell down in a heap after beating out a dribbler to the right side of the pitcher’s mound.  The diagnosis: ruptured patella tendon. Out for the season. This will be the second straight season Casas will be hors de combat. Last year, he missed most of […]

KRAUSE: I’ll hold my nose with Rose

Pete Rose was always the closest thing to an obscenity in my life. I hated the way he ran to first base after a walk. Guys like Joe Garagiola used to praise him to the heavens whenever he did it. But it always appeared, to me, to be the epitome of false hustle.  Rose was […]

KRAUSE: Gehrig, other ALS victims showed extraordinary courage

The first person I thought of this week was my cousin, Jerry Fitzgerald Sr. He might have been the funniest guy I ever met, mainly because he laughed at everything. Even my jokes. I also thought of Jim Daly, a football teammate of mine in high school. Jim was not the biggest guy in the […]

KRAUSE: Red Sox feud with star – again

One thing I learned as a sports reporter is cutting off your nose to spite your face never works.  Never. You simply do not jettison your best player to Aldebaran because you don’t like him, and settle for the equivalent of a few broken bats and a bushel basket of used baseballs in return.   This […]

KRAUSE: A paean to ‘America’s most beloved ballpark’

I’ve rediscovered the charms of Fenway Park. Or should I say, I’m discovering them for the first time. I’ve never been a fan of Fenway. I’ve been to enough Major League parks to see how badly “America’s Most Beloved Ballpark” suffers by comparison. It’s too small, too cramped, too old and too dirty. I got […]

KRAUSE: Game-by-game with the Patriots

My friend Frankie, who could accurately be called The Item’s Swiss Army knife, used to spend endless hours talking about the Patriots with me as the opening of training camp drew closer.  And one of our favorite things to do was to go through the schedule, make predictions, and come up with an overall record.

KRAUSE: Deep words from king of The Open

I was definitely in the “Tiger Brigade” when I was younger. Eldrick Tont “Tiger” Woods was gobbling up tournaments like Pac Man, and each week, whether he won or not, was a must-see invitation to watch him pull a shot or two out of nowhere. But golf is like any other sport. People come and […]

Krause: Gerard Moynihan walked the walk for student-athletes

Some people – a lot of people, actually – talk a great game. They’re front and center when it comes to telling everyone else what to do, but they’re clear out of sight when it comes to taking any action themselves. We call that talking the talk, but not walking the walk. Gerard Moynihan, who […]

KRAUSE: Summer’s over, boys and girls

Since 1987, when we moved to a house bordering Gallagher Park in Lynn, we never had to ask when fall started. One day, we woke up to the dulcet tones of Ray McDermott calling his St. Mary’s football team to practice. It’s been that way ever since. These days, it’s Sean Driscoll. Over the years, […]
