Today we know a little more about the
Derek Jeter tribute on Sunday at Fenway Park. Red Sox President and CEO
Larry Luchhino has partly lifted the Dome Of Silence enough to offer these tid-bits,

And we intend to make a sizable contribution to that, and to give a little piece of Fenway Park to take with him. And to have some musical gestures of admiration and respect for him." We're not exactly sure what a "musical gesture" is, but it sounds as if
Dr. Charles "The Mad Dentist" Steinberg may have been 'reined in' a little after his embarrassing treatment of
Mariano Rivera last year. It will definitely be appointment viewing on Sunday—'cause, well, the Pats are on
Monday Night Football.
