Livan Hernandez / Tim Wakefield, 1 PM
Also scheduled to pitch: Clay Buchholz.
If you wanna see Jonathan Papelbon wearing black lace while dancing the merengue or a bare-chested Dustin Pedroia dipping his partner or Mike Lowell striking a pose, it's your lucky day.

Bot is into it! But poor FY, he looks more like he's baling hay or shoveling snow.
Tizzle with the first-inning double to right center!!!
NESN showing video of the dancing. Dan and Jerry yukking it up.
0-0 after 1.
Don says FY was wearing a sign that said "Daddy". ??
Looks like it's written in pen and says "Badd___"
Bad Dude, maybe?
Remy talking about the "Mall of Ameriker".

DR. DONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fastball up, lined to left.
There goes the no-hitter.
what a beautiful day out there.
Just got back to the game.
Sounds like Buchholz's first three pitches were hit for a home run, single, single.
Yikes.
"Jesus. We coulda had Santana instead of this bum."
(/weei idiot)
another single thru the infield, a stolen base, and a 2-run single off manny's glove (he tumbled/lunged after it) in left.
4-1.
Retires his 6th batter on a popup to SS in short LF. ... Shake it off and get outs.
doh. so many close not-plays. This'll look ugly for buchholz, but man... one or two of those that hit a glove might've turned this around a bit.
1. popped out of coco's glove on the slide. 2. just pass the dive of DP 3. off the heal of manny's glove. Both the manny and oCoC plays turned what would've been really nice plays into bumbling-looking maneuvers.
plus 2 stolen bases so far this inning.
still--baseball!!
just remembered jere's announcing. Right now I'm listening to that and NESN. Here's the link for jere's play-by-play.
dougie walks and skips the tag to avoid the double play. wow!
Here's the link for jere's play-by-play.
I hope he doesn't start defending Grady this time.
Thanks for the link, Nick! I'd already guaranteed no Little talk (small talk?) on this blog the other day.
It's good to see that the sleep-disorder surgery has got Hanson back on track...
Rough day for the Clay Man. But what the hell - it's 1st time out, means nothing. Essentially just glorified stretching.
Nice that he shook it off and retired the side next inning.
haha the boxscore for the twins comes up as a romanian number for skype in foxfire.
do we take a lot of stock in how pitchers do in spring training? hope not.
ps. i've been in a world of warcraft coma. but the sox are back to take me out of it!!!! yay!! (this is a lie, but oh well. they'll have to share xox)
