Fine and Dandy.

First, some more video from the day game:



And then regarding the night game:

While not entirely pleased with the outcome of his 2009 debut, Tim Wakefield thought it went alright:

"I would like to have better results, but I felt fine. The shoulder felt fine. I think I need to work out the rust a little bit. It was the first time in a game facing hitters. I just need to work on some things."

I thought Josh Bard looked a little unsettled but Timmeh (always the gentleman) disagrees:

"It was fine. I thought he did a great job."

And lastly, it might have been Don Orsillo's fault (the man could make Harold Reynolds say intersting things) but Brian Daubach did a really nice job as the color commentator. It's too bad Dauber has a job because he'd make a nice addition to the NESN staff. He seemed to know who all the random guys were and had something to say about them; either he really knows his stuff or he memorized the media guide and was able to deliver his lines convincingly. He'd be right up there with Eck and Dave McCarty.
