FORT MYERS, Fla. -- As expected, Red Sox lefty David Price looked much farther along than Boston's hitters on the first day of batting practice at the team's practice facility Sunday.
Outfielder Chris Young, the first player to step into the box against Price, did manage to get at least one good swing.
"He looks good," Young said. "First day we are all just trying to get our work in right now. It was nice seeing him back on the mound and get back in the box with a helmet on again, put on shin guards and feel like a baseball player again.
