No more walking for the Greek God in this series as the Sox go for 11 pitchers, bringing in Ramiro Mendoza. I like that they bring along Ellis Burks and David McCarty for the ride - that’s two players who’ve been tagged to be coaches in future, and they’ll probably provide another source of coaching for this team.
Also from the Boston Globe:
The crew chief for the series is 23-year veteran Randy Marsh, who’ll be behind the plate tonight. He’s joined by Jeff Nelson, John Hirschbeck, Jim Joyce, Jeff Kellogg, and Joe West. (link)
Jeff Nelson? I hope the Fenway groundskeepers are prepared. Heh.
