Papelbon(Saturday): 2.0 innings pitched; 26 pitches, 18 for strikes; 4 Ks; 0 hits; 0 baserunners
Those are pretty self-explanatory, so I won't digress, but if you check out the clip of Matsuzaka giving up a lead-off double on his first competitive pitch for the Sox, you'll notice the guy is made of steel. He isn't get fazed AT ALL. Yeh, I know, it's early, like I said before. And yeh, it was Boston College for crying out loud, but I'm just impressed with his composure. I think it's something you absolutely have to have to be successful in Major League Baseball, let alone Boston. I absolutely can't wait to see him stare down Ichiro during the first home series in April. I'll be glued to my tv, for sure.
