I've been away for a few days (what, you haven't missed me?) at a buddy's wedding in Westport, MA, and slipping back into work mode (especially when the office you left on Wednesday is no longer the office, or building for that matter, you came to on Monday) has proved rather difficult (as has the urge to reduce my use of parentheses). The weekend began with one of the better baseball games I've seen live, a 1:05 first pitch at sunny Fenway. Pedro was absolutely dominant, and the buzz/energy in the stands was fantastic. Comedy relief was provided by third base coach Dale "Don't Call Me Wendell" Sveum, who on consecutive plays had baserunners thrown out by miles at the plate. Didn't matter to Pedro though (sidebar - what the hell was Pedro doing the other night dry humping that red bat?) - Senor Martinez continued to treat the Devil Rays like an extra on Oz. The standing ovation throughout the entire 9th inning was an excellent start to the weekend. The brutal traffic outside Fenway was not.
