BOSTON -- Two days ago, David Price sat in the home dugout at Fenway Park and outlined his short-term goals in an interview that aired on ESPN's Wednesday Night Baseball.

"I want to get 27 outs in October," he said.

OK, so Price never specified that they had to come in the same game.

Make all the jokes you want -- and the Twittersphere that Price seems to monitor so closely was filled with them -- after the Red Sox reinstated the lefty from the disabled list Thursday and announced he will pitch out of the bullpen for the rest of the season.
