The New Guy makes an impression

Posted by Michael Vega, Globe Staff August 28, 2008 01:47 PM

NEW YORK --- Mark Kotsay, acquired Wednesday from the Atlanta Braves, was penciled into the Sox lineup at right field.

Kotsay, who was hitting sixth in Terry Francona's batting order, didn't disappoint in his first time up to the plate, hitting a towering double to right center off Mike Mussina.

Came thisclose to leaving the yard.

Now, that would've made quite a first impression.

  1. Hey, this is a great update blog. It's 2:52 and you haven't updated things in over an hour. It's 2-0 Red Sox in case anyone was interested.
