After spending a year in Spain, former UConn Huskies forward Jeff Adrien is trying to latch on with an NBA team. He's spending his summer playing for the Orlando Magic summer league team along with his former UConn teammate Stanley Robinson.

Adrien, who looks very chiseled now, finished his first game this afternoon with a double-double of 13 points and 10 rebounds in the Magic's loss to the Indiana Pacers. Two of those 13 points came on a fast break dunk in the video below.

Here's the video for you to enjoy:

The Boston Red Sox will kickoff their final road trip before the All-Star break tonight when they'll take on the Tampa Bay Rays in the first of three games at Tropicana Field.

Tonight's game will start at 7:10 p.m. and will be shown on NESN in the Red Sox television market. The game will be shown on Sun Sports in the Rays television market. If you can't catch the television broadcast, you can always listen to the game on the 2010 Red Sox radio network.

Daisuke Matsuzaka will look to be more consistent in his 11th start of 2010. In his previous ten starts, Dice-K is 5-3 with a 4.50 ERA. His one and only start against the Rays this season was in his last start where he gave up three runs in six innings to take the loss.  He's made ten career starts against the Rays in his career and is 2-5 with a 4.10 ERA. He's made five career starts at the Trop and is 1-2 with a 3.41 ERA.

Matt Garza makes his 17th start of the season for Joe Maddon and the Rays. In his previous 16 starts, he is 9-5 with a 4.08 ERA. Garza faced off against Dice-K in his last start and picked up the win after allowing three runs in 7+ innings. He's made three starts against the Red Sox total this season and is 2-1 with a 4.05 ERA. He's made 16 starts against the Red Sox in his career and is 8-3 with a 3.43 ERA.

For many years, former Irish Tenor Ronan Tynan could be heard singing "God Bless America" at New York Yankees games. But he was accused of making anti-Semitic remarks and left New York.

He ended up relocating to Boston and during a St. Patty's Day event in Beantown, Tynan sang "God Bless America".

Well during the Boston Red Sox's 6-1 loss to the Baltimore Orioles on July 4th, Tynan made his first Fenway Park appearance to sing the song and received a rousing ovation from the Fenway faithful when he was done.

Here's the second of three Dunkin Donuts commercials featuring players from the Boston Red Sox. This one features Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia.

The first one featured Red Sox closer Jonathan Papelbon. A third one will air later this summer that will feature both Pedroia and Papelbon.

And if you're interested in a Boston runs on Dustin t-shirt, head over to our Bloguin brother, The Bottom Line, to purchase one.

Let's not disappoint Boston Red Sox first baseman Kevin Youkilis Red Sox Nation. He really needs our help to get the 2010 MLB All-Star Game in Anaheim, CA on July 13th.

Youk was named one of the 5 final vote candidates and the only way he's getting to Anaheim for the 2010 MLB All-Star Game is to win the vote.

And since we didn't vote any starters into the game, it's only right that we garner enough votes for Youk to enjoy the festivities with his six teammates that were named to the AL reserves.

So please head over to MLB.com and vote as many times as you can for Youkilis. And after you vote, be sure to spread the word around Facebook and Twitter.

For the first time since 1998, the Boston Red Sox didn't have a starter voted into the All-Star Game. But they will be represented by six players when the 2010 MLB All-Star Game is played in Anaheim, CA at Angel Stadium of Anaheim on July 13, 2010.

Dustin Pedroia (3rd), Victor Martinez (4th), David Ortiz (6th), Jon Lester (1st), Clay Buchholz (1st) and Adrian Beltre (1st) were all named to the 2010 American League All-Star reserves. All six members of the Red Sox were voted in by the players.

Pedroia and VMart will not participate in the game as they are on the disabled list. It's likely that Buchholz won't pitch in the game either as he may be placed on the disabled list with a bad hamstring.

One more member of the Red Sox has a chance to join the festivities in Anaheim. First baseman Kevin Youkilis was named one of the five final vote participants. He'll need our help to get there so please vote 25 times for him.
