FORT MYERS, Fla. -- Good morning from the Fort, where the Boston Red Sox are going through their final workout before the games begin.
They’ll get Boston College and Northeastern in their annual doubleheader at JetBlue Park on Monday.
What’s it like to face an elite knuckleballer? The Eagles will find out in the opener as they try to decipher the wacko movements of Steven Wright's signature pitch, while Northeastern faces Sean O'Sullivan, a right-handed non-roster invitee, in the second game.
Wright, 31, is competing for a spot as a long reliever and spot starter after having his 2015 season cut short by a concussion in mid-August.
