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
2) Don't sweat it.
He got himself into trouble, but was able to work out of it. Looks good, just needs to work on nerves.
