If your into the Spring Training spirit, you should pick up some Mickey's FreshRoasted Peanuts. That's the brand of peanuts that they serve at Spring Training. Well, that's what they have at City of Palms Park (Red Sox Spring Training Stadium) and at  Lee County Sports Complex (Minnesota Twins Spring Training Stadium)

Note: The 4oz bag that they serve at Ballparks have 640 calories.That's 160 calories per person and the bag serves 4, but seriously are 3 people going to eat out of 4oz bag?

Don't expect to find Fenway Franks at the City of Palms Park. Dietz & Watson is theOfficial Frank of the City of Palms Park.

The Boston Red Sox just lost six in a row including four against the Yankees. Will they come back to be contenders in October?

Matsuzaka was recently diagnosed with a mild right shoulder strain. (June 21, 2009) You can follow the latest Daisuke Matsuzaka news on Google news.

Answer:
