The Red Sox had their first workout in Japan Today (yesterday?), and are preparing to play their first exhibition game against the Hanshin Tigers tonight.
The game starts at midnight, so it's a good thing that it's the weekend, 'cause I am not pleasant when I don't get enough sleep.
In my last post, I said that I hoped the Sox could just get back to America without some international incident happening. Jonathan Papelbon is, apparently, trying his best to make sure that I am disappointed, by finding a construction helmet somewhere, and deciding to wear it during practice. Seriously, I am pretty certain that he is not supposed to have that helmet, but it does look funny on him, and it gave me a laugh, so he gets a pass on it for now. But if he comes out to pitch in the game wearing it, I may have to fly to Japan and be his personal escort, to make sure that he behaves himself.
Yes, I am willing to sacrifice my internal body clock to keep Papelbon out of trouble. All I do is give, give, give.
I will be very cranky if this team loses the AL East to the Yankees by 2 games, because they had to forfeit some of the games, due to the fact that they were in jail.
