Congrats to them!! GO SOX! I wonder if he’ll go to Japan for the exhibition games?

That’s great news. I bet he will be in Japan for the exhibition games. I think I read somewhere Terry Francona talking about “Plan B” for Japan. Plan B was if he couldn’t attend b/c she hadn’t yet had the baby. I bet since she’s delivered now he’ll make the quick trip. Who knows though – we’ll find out soon enough!
