Career Stats
Joshua Patrick Beckett born May 15, 1980. Josh is Major League Baseball right-handed starting pitcher currently for the Boston Red Sox. During his career in the playoffs, he won the 2003 World Series MVP Award with the Florida Marlins, and received the 2007 ALCS MVP award with the Red Sox. In a deal that was made official on Thanksgiving Day, 2005, Beckett was traded to the Red Sox along with third baseman Mike Lowell. Josh Beckett became the first Red Sox pitcher to hit a home run in 35 years. Beckett also recorded his first complete game shutout in three years against the Atlanta Braves in a duel against former Red Sox pitcher Derek Lowe. The shutout was his first in a Red Sox uniform in June of 2009. One of my favorite games was when Josh was ejected for supposingly intentionally throwing at the head of Bobbie Abreau. Originally suspended for 6 games he appealed and got it reduced to 5 games. And Beckett's best stat was when he recorded his 100th career win on July 12th, 2009, pitching a complete game shutout against the Kansas City Royals at Fenway Park.
