The Alamar steps into the battered spot, first to three, the angels and the red spots.

Right now.

Thank you, Don.

Good evening, everybody.

A festive atmosphere on the Sims in Boston.

And a crowd that will be over 30,000, nearly a sellout, as they come back to see the

Kinigliero Boys, an opposing uniform.

Gary Peters' first pitch of the game is taken for a strike and

we're underway. Andy Alamar looked at a fastball. On the inside corner, Alamar batting 209, still leads

to the club and runs batted in with 20s, batting from the right side against the left-hander

Peters, now 34 years old. Peter's an easy motion to pitch. Tung on line, drive, base, hit, right field.

Over to get him near the line is Reggie Smith.

He plays it quickly back to the infield,

and Alamar stops at first with a line single to the opposite field.

Here's Alex Johnson.

Johnson with an eight-game hitting streak is batting two.

Infield will set itself for two.

Petruseli bag high at third.

Aparicio and Griffin up the middle, squeezed toward the bag.

Scott holding on Alamar first base. Big hole in the right side.

Peter's from the bell, checks the runner. Here's the pitch.

Swung on and filed out of play. Alex is trying to go to right field.
