Plenty of times I’ve been reef fishing or night diving, especially during lobster season, and haven’t touched a drop until sunrise and we were heading back in.
That said, hard to imagine what a starting pitcher is doing out on a boat at 3 a.m. 10 hours before a start.
I think his start had been pushed back until Monday against the Mets.
Still, 3 am and high speed (possibly) boating. Not good at all. But these are high-spirited young men, having the time of their lives and with the horizon seemingly endless in front of them. Tragically, maturity can sometimes arrive too late.
