Twitter Update, March 7, 2010

First game of Spring Training was played this week. Tongue and cheek, but one of tweet kind of sums it up:

And Joe Nelson saves the game with his Vulcan change-up, and #RedSox is undefeated in the Grapefruit League. Half game up on Yanks :) #

Looking forward to counting how many games up or down in the standing all season long. By the way, Red Sox’s magic number for 2010 is 163.

• Future MLB player (!) OF Norichika Aoki interviewed in English on asahi.com. His baseball hero is Derek Jeter. http://bit.ly/cXOSor #
• Daisuke Matsuzaka says he feels better, in a better spot than the past. But might not be ready by Opening Day. #RedSox http://bit.ly/bUdjWw #
• Prince Fielder's choreographed walk-off HR celebration last September. Was drilled by Barry Zito for it today. http://bit.ly/cuVNs6 #
• Ichiro just hit a run scoring triple. Oh man, I am already loving this MLB At Bat app on my iPhone, twi days into spring training. #
• So, #RedSox loses 5-0 to Twins. Should we let the "good defense doesn't score runs" argument begin? Sox no longer undefeated. (was quick) #
• And Joe Nelson saves the game with his Vulcan change-up, and #RedSox is undefeated in the Grapefruit League. Half game up on Yanks :) #
• Mark Wagner drives in Josh Reddick in the bottom 8th. 2-1 #RedSox If Joe Nelson can hold 1 run lead, ex-Hanshin Scott Atchison will get "W" #
• Though not likely to make out of the Spring in the Majors, I am rooting for Scott Atchison. He is scheduled to pitch top 8th. #RedSox #
• Quoting @PeteAbe: Hideki Okajima put 2 runners on with 1 out but escaped damage. Not the most exciting game in Mayor's Cup history. #
• Hideki Okajima's on for Top4: Casilia grounds to short, Scutaro makes what sounds like a speutacular play. If only I could watch it! #RedSox #
• I guess there is no NESN or MLB.TV for the Min-#RedSox game tonight? Beckett to start, Hideki Okajima to go 3rd & former Hanshin Atchson 7th #
• @imthepeanut It's just like the original Super Mario, at the end of World 2-3. See 1:07 of this YouTube video http://bit.ly/aUQjKg in reply to imthepeanut #
• @maineroots Thank you sir, Appreciate your kind words! in reply to maineroots #
• I've master the art of getting unlimited 1-UPs in New Super Mario Bro. Wii (in 2-3), but is it encouraging my son to cheat, by example? #fb #
• I missed this, but Junichi Tazawa pitched the third inning against BC, went three up, three down. Two strikeouts. Nice. #RedSox #
• Awesome, wish I were there. RT @Mueller11: Going to #RedSox #SpringTraining? Check out Lansdowne Street (vlog post): http://bit.ly/aZWvFM #
• I know it is against college teams, but David Ortiz' 3-run homer and Jose Iglesias' 3-run double in his first at-bat as a #RedSox Excited. #
• Great story by @IanMBrowne about Japan's knuckleball princess Eri Yoshida and Tim Wakefield #RedSox http://bit.ly/aNZIGo #

• Good read. All the defensive calculations madness. I love that stuff, though. "UZR you serious?" by Chris Gasper http://bit.ly/bUPJpK #
• Stat: DefEff (Defensive Efficiency), % of balls put into play converted. Bottom 3: KC .673 HOU .676 & #RedSox at .677. http://bit.ly/bgYX6I #
