Inside the Game: Beckett pitch selection »
April 10, 2007
From the Red Sox official game notes:
-The Red Sox have won 2 straight and 11 of their last 15 home openers.
-Josh Beckett will start the first game at Fenway for the second straight year; he won last year's opener against Toronto.
-New acquisition J.D. Drew is the only member of the team who has hit safely in all six games so far.
-The Seattle Mariners have won five in a row over the Red Sox coming into this afternoon. But they'd have to win 52 more to even the all-time series, which Boston leads, 191-139.
-This would be a good day for Jason Varitek to produce some offense. The catcher, who is batting just 2-for-16 (a .125 average) is a .421 lifetime hitter (8-for-19, 2 home runs) off Seattle starter Jeff Weaver.
