    The Boston Red Sox Friday, November 20, 2020 * The Boston Globe With myocarditis behind him, Red Sox lefty Eduardo Rodriguez confidently looks ahead Alex Speier Playing catch is among the least exceptional things a major league baseball player can do. It is a signal of routine, little more than an obligatory checkmark in a day. That is not the case for Eduardo Rodriguez. Last week, for the first time since his season ended because of COVID-19-related myocarditis in mid-July, the Red Sox lefthander started throwing a baseball. It represented a milestone, and he’s now going to be doing it four times a week. “Amazing, man. It feels great,” Rodriguez said by phone. “It’s one of the best feelings I’ve ever had.” For the 28-year-old lefthander, normal has taken on new dimensions. At the start of July, just before he was scheduled to come to Boston for summer training camp before the compressed season, Rodriguez tested positive for COVID-19. He remained home until multiple negative tests led to clearance to come to Boston. But when he started throwing in Fenway Park, fatigue immediately made it clear that something was very wrong. A battery of tests revealed the myocarditis — an inflammation of the heart muscle that in worst-case scenarios can cause death. When the condition did not immediately resolve, Rodriguez was shut down for the season and sent back home. There, he wasn’t merely prohibited from engaging in baseball activities, he was restricted from virtually all forms of physical exertion — whether it was playing with his 7-year-old daughter and 3-year-old son, or taking his dog for a walk.

  • HISTORY NASHVILLE BASEBALL HISTORY the 2019 Season Signifies the 42Nd Season for the Nashville Sounds
    HISTORY NASHVILLE BASEBALL HISTORY The 2019 season signifies the 42nd season for the Nashville Sounds. It’s the 22nd season as a member of the 16- team Pacific Coast League, and the first as the Triple-A affiliate of the Texas Rangers. Despite the 42nd season as the Nashville Sounds, baseball’s roots in Nashville go back to the 19th Century. In fact, baseball has been played in Middle Tennessee since at least 1860, when the Republican Banner newspaper published a July 25th report on the game’s popularity the previous fall. During the Civil War, Union soldiers temporarily based here helped spread the game in the local community. Home field was a place known as the Sulphur Springs Bottom, a half-mile north of today’s state capitol. When the original Southern League was organized in 1885, Nashville was a charter city and games were played at Nashville’s Athletic Park, as the Sulphur Springs Bottom location came to be known. The city fielded several entries in the league over the next ten years -- the Americans (1885-86), the Blues (1887), the Tigers (1893-94), and the Seraphs (1895) -- but was unable to claim a pennant. When the Southern Association was formed in 1901, Athletic Park – which was later given the name Sulphur Dell by famed sportswriter Grantland Rice -- became the permanent home to the Nashville Volun- teers (or Vols, for short), who played there for the next 61 years. Under the guidance of manager Newt Fisher, the Nashville club won the SA’s first two pennants. The team, which was not known as the Vols until a “name the team” contest conducted prior to the 1908 season, continued to build a solid, loyal fan base.

    The Boston Red Sox Friday, October 23, 2020 * The Boston Globe Red Sox interview Cubs’ Will Venable, Pirates' Don Kelly for manager job Alex Speier The Red Sox managerial search is officially underway. According to major league sources, the Red Sox have interviewed Cubs third base coach Will Venable and Pirates bench coach Don Kelly for their managerial vacancy. Venable, 37, spent parts of nine seasons in the big leagues as an outfielder with the Padres, Rangers, and Dodgers from 2008-16 before joining the Cubs in late 2017. Initially hired as a special assistant to Cubs president Theo Epstein, Venable instead ended up coaching first base in 2018 and 2019 before being elevated to third base coach in 2020. Venable, the son of former big leaguer Max Venable, was a two-sport athlete at Princeton (basketball and baseball) before embarking on his pro baseball career. Those who have worked with him suggest that he adeptly blends traditional baseball sensibilities and old-school feel with modern analytical perspectives. He also connects easily with players, in part because of his calm demeanor and because he remains mindful from his own career — in which he was a .249/.315/.404 hitter — of the game’s difficulty. He is inexperienced as a manager but considered a tremendous baseball mind who will eventually land in that spot. “He should be managing someday, if not now,” said one major league source. Kelly, 40, spent parts of nine years in the big leagues with the Pirates, Tigers, and Marlins between 2007- 16, playing all nine positions in his career.
