Red Sox notes

NEW YORK -- Some pregame news nuggets . . ..

-- Mike Timlin threw from flat ground and is scheduled to throw off a mound today. ''This is a good step, getting him back on the mound,'' said Terry Francona. Timlin, suffering from tendinitis in his right shoulder, has been on the disabled list since May 3.

-- Francona was asked how it felt to be coming into Yankee Stadium with a 10 1/2-game lead. ''If this was September 29, I'd say awesome,'' said Francona. ''But it's May 21. They're not going to give us a ring, and I'm pretty sure they're not going to give us any money.''
