Clay Buchholz OK to start Sunday


Updated: May 30, 2013, 9:32 PM ET
By Gordon Edes | ESPNBoston.com



PHILADELPHIA -- "Everything points" to Clay Buchholz starting Sunday night in New York against the Yankees, Red Sox manager John Farrell said after the right-hander reported no lingering issues after another bullpen session Thursday.



Buchholz will be starting six days after he was scratched from his scheduled start Monday with what the team described as irritation in his acromioclavicular (AC) joint, where where the top of the scapula, or wing bone, connects to the collarbone.
Buchholz, 7-0 with a league-best 1.73 ERA, was to have started the series opener Friday night against the Yankees, but that plan was abandoned Wednesday over the pitcher's protests when he told Farrell he still felt some discomfort.
But when Buchholz's bullpen session went without a hitch Thursday, Farrell said it appears to be a go for Sunday. Jon Lester is scheduled to face CC Sabathia in a duel between lefties Friday night, Sox lefty Felix Doubront is to face right-hander Phil Hughes on Saturday night, and Buchholz is penciled in to face right-hander Hiroki Kuroda on Sunday night.
Farrell said Thursday that Buchholz might benefit from the extra rest.

Hideki Matsui to retire as a Yankee


Updated: May 31, 2013, 12:42 AM ET
By Andrew Marchand | ESPNNewYork.com

NEW YORK -- Hideki Matsui will sign a one-day minor league contract with the New York Yankees in late July so he can retire with the franchise.
Prior to the July 28 game against the Tampa Bay Rays at Yankee Stadium, Matsui will ink the deal and the Yankees will dedicate the day to honoring him. The first 18,000 fans will receive Matsui bobbleheads, which portray him with his 2009 World Series MVP trophy.



The Yankees picked the late-July date because it was originally the team's 55th home game of the season. Matsui wore No. 55.
Matsui, 38, played seven seasons with the Yankees, hitting .292 with 140 homers and 597 RBIs. His pinstripe career ended when the Yankees won the 2009 World Series against the Phillies. Matsui hit .615 with three homers and eight RBIs during the Series and was named MVP.
In Game 6, Matsui went 3-for-4 with a home run and six RBIs. He tied Bobby Richardson (1960) and Albert Pujols (2011) for the most World Series RBIs in one game.
"You'll hear every player to a man say what a great teammate he was," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "And I think everyone will look forward to that day."
Matsui played 10 years with the Yomiuri Giants before coming to the Yankees. After he left the Yankees, he played one season each with the Los Angeles Angels, Oakland A's and Rays. He was released by Tampa Bay last August.

offense came alive last night. Too bad Ellsbury couldn't score on his steals. I'll certainly take it though!
