Sox Streakers for June 5 »
June 5, 2007
Coco Crisp is back in the starting lineup after being unable to make it to the first pitch on Monday night.
It was announced that night that he was suffering from an upset stomach, but Crisp said this afternoon that that wasn't accurate. Without getting too graphic, he said he was feeling congested, his sinuses giving him trouble and causing him to "dry heave," which scared the trainers enough to suggest he not start the game.
"I was all right. He (manager Terry Francona) had told me to come into his office and tell him (if I needed a day off) but I never did, so this gave him a chance to rest me," said Crisp, who entered the game as a pinch runner, scoring the tying run in the ninth and playing the last two innings in center field.
