With Thursday being an off day for the Red Sox, there is still always something to write about or talk about in the Boston area and NY media for the upcoming series.
Steve pointed out to me that the Red Sox had 7 of the top web gems for the month of May. 3 diving catches by Coco, Mirabelli’s juggling catch, Varitek’s sliding catch, Hinske’s face plant and the 3-6-1 turned by Youk, Lugo and Daisuke. And that’s leaving out Manny’s catch in Yankee stadium. And the only announcers voices used in the entire piece was Orsillo and Remy.
