The beer swilling pitching staff of the Red Sox not only drank in the clubhouse, they also tiped a few back in the dugout during games according to a report form WHDH.
On nights when they were not pitching, Beckett, Lester and Lackey would exit the dugout as early as the 6th inning, walk back to the clubhouse, and fill cups with Bud Light beer. They would then return to the dugout with cups of beer and drink while watching the game. It didn’t make a difference whether the Red Sox were winning or losing at the time and the practice became more frequent later in the 2011 season
In the dugout? Really? They don’t even allow beer in the dugout in my beer league softball games. For what it is worth, Lester, who admitted drinking beer in the clubhouse, completely denied the accusations in the story. As I wrote yesterday, we have not reached rock bottom yet and thing are going to continue to be bad until spring training. drip…drip….drip
