To quote
Michael Caine's character in
'Hannah and Her Sisters',
"I have my answer! I'm walking on air!" The answer in
this case has nothing to do (unfortunately) with
Barbara Hershey. It
does have to do with when Red Sox pitchers and catchers report to Fort Myers—and that date is
Saturday, February 21st. This event—along with
Truck Day—are key demarcation points for the new season. We also now know when full-squad workouts begin—
Wednesday, February 25th. That is all. You may now return to your regular winter activities.
