The 2001 Boston Red Sox season was the 101st season in the franchise's Major League Baseball history. The Red Sox finished second in the American League East with a record of 82 wins and 79 losses, 13+1⁄2 games behind the New York Yankees, who went on to win the AL championship. The Red Sox did not qualify for the postseason, as the AL wild card went to the Oakland Athletics, who finished second in the American League West with a record of 102–60.

In mid-August, manager Jimy Williams was dismissed by general manager Dan Duquette; Joe Kerrigan, who had been the team's pitching coach, served as manager for the remainder of the season.[1]

The end of the regular season was pushed back from September 30 to October 7 due to the September 11 attacks. The Red Sox only played 161 games,[2] as their rained out game of September 10 against the Yankees in New York was not rescheduled, as it had no bearing on the postseason.[3]

Offseason

[edit]
  • November 16, 2000: Chris Stynes was traded by the Cincinnati Reds to the Boston Red Sox for Michael Coleman and Donnie Sadler.[4]
  • December 2000: Free agent Manny Ramirez signed an eight-year $160 million contract with the Red Sox.[5]
  • January 11, 2001: David Cone signed as a free agent with the Boston Red Sox.[6]
  • January 19, 2001: Craig Grebeck was signed as a free agent with the Boston Red Sox.[7]
