Quiet day

By Chris Snow, Globe Staff

Uneventful day at the Sox complex today ...

  • Trot Nixon apparently drew the shortest straw and had to play catch on Field 5 with a bunch of youngsters to commemorate the fourth anniversary of John Henry's group purchasing the Sox.

  • Several pitchers, among them Craig Hansen and Manny Delcarmen, threw batting practice to hitters. Hansen spun off a few nice sliders that produced some swings and misses.

  • If you're coming out tomorrow, come late. The club has its meeting with the union at 9 a.m. and won't work out until noon.

  • The Manny watch is on; he’s due here in a day and a half.
