Alex Bregman with a pinch hit 3-run homer to put the Red Sox up 5-1. And his horse won the 5th at Ellis Park. Some guys....
Ryan Poles only made a cameo in the traditional GM-coach opening press conference today. That's fine. It's Ben Johnson's show anyway. nytimes.com/athletic/65097…

Ryan Poles just gave updates on injuries. No Q&A. Unusual to open camp. Now it's time for the real boss, Ben Johnson.
I'm begrudgingly at Halas Hall. Football should start on Aug. 1, not July 22.
