« Angels Lineup, Game 2 ALDS

Curt Schilling, who will be starting Game 3 of the ALDS on Sunday in Anaheim, noon California time, was sent to the West Coast last night, several hours before the scheduled first pitch of tonight's Game 2 at Fenway Park, so he can be better rested for his outing.
Boston manager Terry Francona figured that, depending on the length of tonight's game, the Red Sox won't be arriving at their hotel until around 7 a.m., California time.
Schilling also will be joining Francona for a 2 p.m. West Coast time press conference tomorrow.
The veteran right-hander did not have to fly alone, though, Josh Beckett, who turned in a dominant win in Game 1 on Wendesday night, accompanied Schilling. Beckett would pitch Game 4 on Monday, if that game is necessary in the best-of-five series.
