  1. I'm saying nothing happens between the Sox and Rays tonight.
  2. No Bobby V for lineup card. Bogar delivers it to home plate.
  3. Carlton Fisk throwing out the ceremonial first pitch tonight at Fenway. Salty is on the receiving end.
  4. @Britt_Ghiroli Guessing you miss the Bruins already? LOL
  5. Bruins acquire forward Chris Bourque from the Washington Capitals in exchange for center Zach Hamill.Yes, Chris is the son of Ray.
  6. Players and coaches on both sides (more than usual) seem to be talking and shaking hands during BP.
  7. Bobby V “We’re in it to win it. There was no doubt that the coaching staff, me and the players were together – unified.”
  8. More Bobby V on TBR coaches:"I thought it was very unprofessional . . . It seemed very immature and out of control.”
  9. Valentine on TBR coaches: “I thought their coaches were really aggressive. I took offense to their aggressiveness to their coaches."
  10. Ortiz said it was his job to keep the peace. He's talking with numerous Rays players near the cage during BP. Hugs all around.
  11. Bobby V said he might take the lineup card up tonight to "get the temperature of everyone."
  12. Ortiz doesn't think there will be any carry over tonight.
  13. Sox today twitter.com/ESPNJoeyMac/st…
  14. BobbyV: “Maybe it was the Ghost of Fenway Past remembering he bad mouthed our fans and our stadium and just directed the ball at his leg.”
  15. Valentine on 9th inning scrum: “A guy got hit in the leg and boys will be boys."
  16. Crawford began hitting off the tee today and had no setbacks.
  17. Now Upton is getting into it with fans behind the Rays dugout.
  18. I've said it many times before: Bench-clearing brawls in baseball are ridiculous. As Cam Neely once said: "Leave the purse in the dugout."
  19. Sox pitching coach Bob McClure was the first one out of the dugout for Boston.
