Sox win
The Red Sox won today, snapping their seven-game winless streak, with a 4-3 triumph over the Mets.
As for those comments from Mike Greenwell, who threw out the first pitch yesterday at City of Palms Park, he discussed the steroids issue this afternoon. Not only did he say that guys tainted by steroids should be in the Hall of Fame, but that he studied steroids when he was a player, though he never went so far as to try them.
"The truth?" he said. "My wife's a nurse and basically told me she'd kill me if she caught me doing it. Really. Reality.
"She was a nurse. I looked into it [steroids]. I studied it. I know a lot about steroids, to be honest with you. Because I was very, very tempted as a player to do it and I think there's many, many players out there that were tempted to do it. Probably if I didn't have my wife I would have done it to try to perform at that level. Another little slight reason I retired when I retired. I just didn't feel like it was quite even anymore."
We'll have more in tomorrow's paper.

Yo, Amalie, I'd like to know more than just the final score of today's (Tuesday's) Red Sox-Mets game. Who pitched, who got the hits... the basic facts of the game, even a spring training affair, that interest me and a majority of Sox fans.
I have to rely on whoever is assigned to the basic daily game report to report the basic details if I want to know what happened. And today that would be you, n'est-ce pas?
I come here looking to see who might be hitting well and spring training and who might have hit well in this game and all you got is Mike Greenwell on how he "thought about" using steroids? You guys are pathetic.
Greenwell's a phony
Come on let's talk about what's important, the Red Sox. It isn't Greenwell and Steroids.
