This is an interesting concept used by one or two teams where instead of a starting pitcher going 6 or 7 innings, the opening pitcher goes 2 innings and then another long inning guy comes in to goe an additional 4 or 5 innings.
The theory behind it is that you don't burn guys out by having them go 7 innings and they stay fresh and ready for anything. In the case of Sale, he's just coming off the DL and Cora considers this 2 inning start is more of a "test" of his arm.
Hopefully this goes well and the Red Sox win tonights game.

I thought about doing the whole, "Where were you when...." thing but you've seen enough of the reminiscence and 9/11 stories today.
I'll just tell you that I was at work when it happened. I called my wife, told her to go to the nearest ATM and withdraw the max of $350 then be prepared to get the kids.
I watched the towers fall and the Pentagon burn. Then I went home and we explained everything to our kids who were more than aware that something bad was going on.
Then I verified that I was capable of protecting my family if need be.
To this day, I still periodically verify that I am capable of protecting my family if need be.

I hope my sister has started paying attention to Flo and is at least a little prepared. One of my brothers sent her a link to a canoe that was on sale just in case she needed something to float around on.
While I watch baseball, you can click on these:
- Key phrase in this story: "The 24-year-old eventually crashed into a police car and fell off, ending the chase."
- I had no idea that they needed convincing.
- PETA has a lot of money and no brains.
- Why do people pretend to be cops?
