Game of the Rising Sun


Tomorrow starts the 2008 season for the Boston Red Sox against the Oakland A's in Tokyo, Japan. The game is on at 5:05AM on ESPN2 and yes, I will be watching before I head into work. Dice-K will get the nod tomorrow morning squaring off against Joe Blanton. Hopefully he feels nice and comfortable on his home turf to secure a win for the Sox. Jon Lester will get the start on Wednesday morning wrapping up the first two games of the series against the A's before heading back to the West Coast of the U.S of A. to play the final two games of the series in Oakland. After that, it's straight into the meat grinder on the road in Toronto and then the head back to Boston to open the home schedule against highly touted Detroit and the rival New York Yankees. Yikes.
