"It took me by surprise [said Javy Lopez on being acquired by the Red Sox]. I was ready in case something happened, I didn't expect to be in the game so early [but] I get to know my pitchers early enough to be relaxed tomorrow... It's fun.
"[Mirabelli's injury is] something I don't wish anybody. When I saw him, it looked pretty bad, [then] I got myself ready, physically and mentally. It's tough. First game... it's tough."
"[It was] very enjoyable [catching Curt Schilling in the sixth]. This is a guy who hardly walks anybody. The games are a lot quicker, I like that. The way he donminates his pitches, on any count, it's really impressive." -- 6.4.06, Javy Lopez, Red Sox starting catcher
