This is standard procedure to go with the 'B' team the day after clinching a playoff spot, but even just reading that lineup makes me chuckle. Though Tito did leave out Scotty Smalls from the Sandlot.
Ah well, about a week until the playoffs begin. What will I do to fill the time? The Bruins start tonight, should I watch them? Nah. Hockey blows.
(* Also, I have no idea if that kid in the picture is trying to hit the ball, or pee like a dog.)

I don't care what you call it, it still sucked....I don't agree with the strategy! If I was someone who forked out hard-earned bucks for a game at Fenway (money which could have been spent on other good stuff like phillie cheesesteak sandwiches), I'd be pretty ticked....who wants to see pee-wee ball when all those great players are sitting right there in the dugout! Well, some of them are good players....okay, a few...One?
Well, they're a playoff team, 6th time in 7 years, so I'd say a majority of them are good players.
And in the age of HD digital television, anybody who pays top dollar for Sox tickets is a sucker, especially for chilly games in September.
So you're saying you like phillie cheesesteak sandwiches, too....
