During the 5th inning of last night’s Boston Red Sox 8-2 loss to the Oakland A’s, Don Orsillo and Jerry Remy made a $5 bet that former Sox shortstop Nomar Garciaparra would swing at the first pitch.
If you don’t remember, Nomar is well known for always swinging at the first pitch as he done in his first two at-bats of the night.

Nice of Orsillo to collect on the bet and not give RemDawg a chance to win his money back.
