BOSTON --
小魚本季最長客場征戰的尾聲將會是個相當大的挑戰,因為小魚星期四要在芬威球場
和紅襪隊進行日夜雙重賽。
原定星期二晚上預計進行三連戰的第一場比賽,但因雨取消,迫使兩隊得進行雙重賽
。結果是小魚接下來的十一天要進行十二場比賽。
第一場比賽,小魚將面對金炳賢,他剛從復健比賽中歸隊。當老提諾還是洋基隊員時
,在2001年的世界大賽中面對小金有個非常棒的回憶。洋基一以三落後,第九局兩人出局
時,老提諾夯出兩分砲,追平了比數。洋基在延長賽獲得勝利。
“那對我來說是件相當重要的事,”老提諾說。
第二場比賽,小魚將會碰上Derek Lowe,2002年四月二十七日在芬威球場,對小魚投
出了一場無安打比賽。但是那場比賽的先發打序目前僅剩下Toby Hall 一人。
