Here's The Deal. The Twins and Cleveland begin their suspended game in the top of the 12th inning at 2:10 pm, then play the scheduled finale. Anaheim/Oakland begins at 4:05 pm.

If the Angels win: Boston plays Anaheim.
If the Angels lose and the Twins go 1-1: Boston plays Anaheim.
If the Angels lose and the Twins go 2-0: Boston plays Minnesota.

The Red Sox may leave Boston as early as 6:30 pm, so it's possible they may not know where they'll land when they take off. ... Derek Lowe will start this afternoon (1:35 pm), but he'll pitch only two innings.

Ellis Burks's start yesterday afternoon was the 2,000th (and likely the last) game of his career. He is one of only 200 players to play 2,000 games. ... The headline is simply "Manny".
