Who’s on first? The great baseball themed routine by Abbott and Costello that has been enjoyed by generations of a predominately male audience, much like The Three Stooges. For Boston no one is on first. Or are they?
To this observer Mike Napoli was due for a spectacular season of baseball redemption. An off-season operation, a spring training that was a power display and pending free agency for the perfect baseball storm.
Napoli has now been shuffled off to a previous area of employment – The Texas Rangers – who still have some Wild Card hope and could certainly have room for some experienced punch.
