redsox.com: DETROIT -- Bobby Valentine got up early on Thursday morning and rode his bicycle from the team hotel to Comerica Park, where he was getting ready to manage his first regular-season game for the Boston Red Sox.
For Valentine, it marked his first game in a Major League dugout since 2002, the year his Mets' tenure ended.
"To tell you the truth, I had the same feeling that I think most of the guys have," Valentine said. "I talked to a lot of them at the hotel early and saw some of them here now. It's Opening Day. There's only one Opening Day. It's a very special day. Start of something new."
