Jonathan Papelbon joins Gary Tanguay and Michael Felger on Mohegan Sun’s Sports Tonight at 6:30pm on September 2nd to talk about several topics, including his increased workload this season and what Dustin Pedroia’s reaction should have been to Ozzie Guillen after the White Sox manager referred to him as a "jockey".

Dustin Pedroia has been on fire lately, and last night became the first Red Sox player since Wade Boggs in 1989 to have back-to-back four hit games. How hot is the Boston second baseman? So hot that White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen intentionally walked Pedroia with a runner on third and two outs Saturday night.

Guillen later explained his maneuver, dropping a hilarious backhanded compliment:

"I never thought I would walk a jockey," he said.

From most managers that’d be an insult. From Guillen, it’s practically endearing.
