I thought the funniest comments came from Doug Mirabelli after the game. He was describing his experiences getting to the ballpark - as of yesterday morning he was in San Diego, a member of the Padres. When he got word of the trade, he hopped in a jet hired by the Red Sox, (approximating here) "and the pilot flew about 1,000 miles an hour...I felt like I was in a New York cab. When we landed, the pilot slammed on the brakes, and we skidded sideways to a stop. I had, like, 6 seatbelts on." He then mentioned he changed into his uniform in the back of the police car on the way from the airport to the ballpark. There must be something about being naked in the back of a police car going 100 miles an hour...
