How did the redsox and dodgers trade after deadline?

Waivers. The deadline for regular trades is July 31, after that teams can still trade for another month via the waiver wire. Teams place their players on "waivers" which enables other teams to claim those players. If a player is claimed, the waiving team has 3 days to do choose 1 of the 3 following options: arrange a trade with the claiming team, allow the claiming team to simply take the player and assume his entire remaining contract and salary, or pull him off of waivers and keep him. If no team claims the player within a certain period of time then he is considered to have cleared waivers, and his team can either move him to the minors or pull him off of waivers.

Waivers differs from the regular trade period in that you can no longer approach specific teams and suggest a trade; you can only deal with whichever team claims the player, and teams are given preference according to their record with the worst record getting priority. This rule allows teams in contention to effectively block trades to other teams in their division.

In this instance, LA was in 1st place when they claimed AGon, so SF - being a contender for the Western title - could have opted to claim AGon after learning he was claimed by LA, seeing as SF had the worse record. The downside here is the risk of potentially getting stuck with a player they do not want, need, or can't afford. Had SF claimed AGon in attempt to block him from going to LA, Boston could have just let him go, in which case, SF is now obligated to take the player they didn't actually intend to keep.

The bottom line is that the regular trade period gives you the ability to choose a team with players you want and then negotiate a trade. Trading via waivers forces you to deal with whichever team claims your player, and that team might not have players that adequately address your needs.

When do players usually arrive at Fenway for a game?

Like most MLB teams, batting practice starts approximately 3 hours before gametime. There are certain situations, (noon start following a late game, rain delay) where BP is later than that.

Fenway Park's gates open two hours before game time. One person reported that the Red Sox take the field about 20 minutes before gates open, and stay out for approx 30 minutes after gates open. The visiting team then take BP for approx another hour.

Another perspective; I went to batting practice and I was there before it even began. They worked with some young guys at first at like 3 and than started in with the whole team at 4 they all stop at 5:10 for the away to start.

Who holds the MLB record for being hit by a pitch the most times in a single season?

The single season HBP record is held by Hughie Jennings of the Baltimore Orioles who was hit 51 times in the 1896 season.
