Burrell will be at Ring Ceremony in Philly
Pat Burrell, who played against the Phillies today in the Rays 12-5 loss, said afterward he has made arrangements to take part in the World Championship Ring Ceremony with his former teammates on April 8.
“I came over early (today) and (team president) David (Montgomery) and I talked,” Burrell said. “Fortunately for me it works out to where we’re going to be in Boston, so I can shoot over because the Phillies have a day game, (and) I’ll be able to come over and jump right back on a flight. We play at night. That’s just a coincidence.”

I hope that goes well. There's always some idiot in the stands, usually right next to the mike, who boos and taints the whole city. But Burrell came through in the playoffs, left the city on good terms (unlike Rolen) and didn't dis the city and its fans after he left (unlike Francona and Wagner), so I think most of the fans will treat him with the respect he deserves.
