El Gordo Takes the Mound

Bartolo "El Gordo" Colon made his debut in a Red Sox uniform today in Ft. Myers.

He gave up two hits and one run over two innings. Colon struck out one and gave up one walk throwing 26 pitches in total.

Not bad for his first outing after recovering from injury. We are going to need Colon to pitch well and earn a spot as one of the Sox starters.

Okajima continued to pitch well, throwing another scoreless inning.
