It may be snowing in your neck of Massachusetts right now, but the boys of summer are set to play their first game of the 2010 baseball season today.
The Red Sox have two games on the bill today, first against Northeastern at 12:05 and later tonight at 6:05 against BC. The day game won't be televised, but we'll be able to watch our first baseball game on NESN tonight.
Here's the lineup for the day game, courtesy of Peter Abrahm of Extra Bases:
Jacoby Ellsbury CF Bill Hall 3B Victor Martinez C David Ortiz DH Jed Lowrie SS Lars Anderson 1B Darnell McDonald RF Che-Hsuan Lin CF Gil Velazquez 2B
Pitching phenom Casey Kelly will get the start, but is expected to get just one inning of work.
I'll be rooting for strong performances from Big Papi and Jed Lowrie (I just wanna see the kid stay healthy and show us we he's got)... and I'm hoping to see good things from Anderson, who regressed in 2009, and Lin, who I think is going to develop into a nice player and is currently the 12th ranked prospect on SoxProspects.com.
What are you guys looking forward to today?
ps. I stole this photo from my biddies as Surviving Grady ... because it was too funny not to.
