Quote of the day
"It was just neat to see the organization do that for [Terry Francona]. I think I saw him teary-eyed a little bit during that thing." -- Cleveland 1B/DH Mark Reynolds, after the Red Sox honored Francona on his return to Fenway with a video tributeDaily blurb
I fully expected the Boston fans to give Terry Francona a rousing ovation on his return to Fenway. When the team showed a video tribute on the scoreboard, that was an especially classy move. And when the Indians trounced the Red Sox 12-3, well…it was a good day to be “Tito”.
Today may not be as kind, with cold, wet weather putting tonight’s Fenway game in peril. Apparently, the yucky weather is not too widespread, as the weather dashboard doesn’t show significant problems elsewhere – at least not yet. Couldn’t prove it by looking out the windows at RotoGuru World Headquarters, though.
