Beckett Prepares for Postseason, Throws Batting Practice

Red Sox ace Josh Beckett threw some light BP in an exhibition game against the Twins on Thursday. It was a continuation of “The Mayor’s Cup” held every spring between the two Fort Myers rivals. With the playoffs looming a week away, Josh threw a very relaxed session, letting the Twins’ hitters get some good wood on the ball, and thus giving his fielders some practice.

The Sox offense also held a clinic on “How Not To Score Runs With One Out” in the 9th inning. All in all, it was an all-encompassing practice session which no doubt will prepare the team for their 1st round matchup against Cleveland or Anaheim.

Tonight, the Sox play a real game against Minnesota. A game for which they will be prepared, thanks to last night’s exhibition.
