PREGAME: No peck on the cheek

Danielle Peck sings the National Anthem.

Tonight's National Anthem singer is country singer Danielle Peck, the former girlfriend of Red Sox starter Josh Beckett. Safe to say there won't be any interaction between the two. Maybe the Indians scheduled this on purpose (wink-wink).

Following the game, a reporter actually asked Beckett what he thought about the Indians bringing Peck in to sing. He was quite animated.

"I don't get paid to make those (expletive) decisions," he said. "She's a friend of mine. That doesn't bother me at all. Thanks for flying one of my friends to the game so she cokuld watch it for free."
