No Japan trip for Beckett, Dice-K will start opener
It’s official: Josh Beckett will not be making the season opening trip to Japan.
Said Terry Francona:
“It’s not the right thing to do [to send him to Japan]. Everything we say, we need to live by.”
Beckett threw off the mound yesterday for the first time since injuring his back, and by all accounts the exercise was a success.
Dice-K Matsuzaka, whose wife gave birth to a baby boy on Saturday, now has clearance to travel to Japan and will pitch in the opener vs. the Athletics.
Lester will start game 2.
It should be a pretty special day for Matsuzaka, as he’ll be throwing in front of his countrymen for the first time since defecting to the Major Leagues last year.
