"A New York Treasure" --Village Voice

Fade to Black

The Yankee-Red Sox game was blacked out in most of the Metropolitan area last night, but Manny Banuelos didn’t pitch badly:

“That guy’s 20 years old?” Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia asked. “He’s really good, and he seems to have an idea. Shoot, when I was 20, I was swinging with an aluminum bat [in college].”

“I think for this young man’s future they should go slow with him, very slow,” Red Sox manager Terry Francona said with a smile.

Alfredo Aceves started for the Sox, who beat the Yanks, 2-1.

I don't like the idea of Aceves in Red Sox uniform

He got himself into trouble, but was able to work out of it. Looks good, just needs to work on nerves.
