April 1, 2002, Ugie Urbina gave up a run in the ninth to lose the opener at Fenway to the Blue Jays, 12-11.

The starting rotation is like 8 deep and the bullpen has been bolstered. Offensively, Papi is looking good and Lowell is back. I'm feeling really good. Regarding the home opener, I do not recall them ever opening at home before. And it certainly makes sense to have the Sox open on the road in some warmer climate. Not sure why they decided to break with that tradition. steve ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tom Salemi Sent: Wednesday, April 01, 2009 10:38 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Opening Day? Dale and Holley were interviewing Tim Wakefield about it. He said this is only the second this has happened in his tenure. He's been with the sox since 95.

In the past ten years or so, they avoided the possibility of snow for 7 to 10 days into April by forfeiting the right to home season openers to better climate teams. Just a feeling I've had. No data now. So, i agree with Ray. Seems like a long time. ________________________________ From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Wed Apr 01 02:46:20 2009 Subject: Opening Day? It appears that Red Sox opening day is the same day as the home opener. I can't remember the last time we opened the season at home. Is it as rare as I think?
