I’m finally finding time to catch up on the end of the Red Sox homestand from last week. It’s been a whirlwind couple of days of travel, and as I write this post from a hotel room in San Diego, I am feeling exhausted. I have time to kill before a red eye flight back to Boston, so I’m trying to get up to speed on lingering work so I can sleep on the plane tonight.
