Flagging the wind at Fenway

The flags, the one in center as well as the ones behind home plate, came under considerable study over the last couple hours.

It not only is another cold night at Fenway, it is windy. Very windy. That is more important than usual because TIm Wakefield is working, meaning there will be lots of knuckle balls floating in the wind.

It will be interesting to see how the wind affects the knuckler. There were times, before the game, when the flags were blowing straight out. There were other times, perhaps more often, when the flags were blowing from left to right.

Wakefield has said he does not mind wind, as long as it is not at his back.
