1. Given that the Henrys own both the @BostonGlobe and the @RedSox, it took some guts for brand-new @GlobeOpinion columnist @KimberlyEAtkins to write about team's tepid response to racism — and some guts for the Globe to run it. https://www.bostonglobe.com/2020/08/27/opinion/missing-moment-red-sox-lost-this-fan/

2. And maybe this @alexspeier column gives us some indication of why Mookie Betts seemed uninterested in staying with the Red Sox at any price. https://www.bostonglobe.com/2020/08/27/sports/baseballs-pause-offers-perfect-time-incubator-action/

3. Under Henry's ownership, the Red Sox have made real progress on race, even taking on the racist Yawkey legacy. But as recent events have shown, they haven't done as much as they could or moved quickly enough. It's time for more. -30-
