The Red Sox are off tonight, but that gives the Pawtucket Red Sox a chance to steal the spotlight, taking over NESN for their home opener. And since there's little better to do on a Thursday night in April without Major League Baseball, we're throwing up a PawSox game thread for anyone interested.
Pawtucket Red Sox (4-3)
- Quintin Berry, CF
- Rickie Weeks, 3B
- Travis Shaw, DH
- Bryce Brentz, RF
- Garin Cecchini, LF
- Blake Swihart, C
- Luke Montz, 1B
- Deven Marrero, SS
- Sean Coyle, 2B
Starting Pitcher -- Steven Wright
No Jackie Bradley Jr. tonight, and unfortunately Rusney Castillo is still on the disabled list, but there's still Garin Cecchini, Blake Swihart, and Deven Marrero to go around, to say nothing of the B-team bunch that are hanging around before them in the lineup.
First pitch is...well, now. And if you don't have NESN, you can probably find a radio stream on MILB.com.
Go (Paw) Sox!
