The Red Sox have managed to add 230 seats to Fenway Park.
The new seats, which are already in place on the right field roof, are expected to be filled during the 2007 season. However, the seats will be empty for the home opener because the Red Sox still are waiting for the city to officially sign off on the new seating.

Roger Clemens was greeted by a group of autograph-seeking fans as he walked off the 18th green during a pro-am golf event on Wednesday.
"Are you coming back?" someone asked.
"I'll know in about a month," Clemens answered.
Clemens said his agents, Alan and Randy Hendricks, will let him know when he can't put off his decision any longer.
"They're great at what they do and they'll call me and say, 'Listen, it's time to either make a decision or not,"' the seven-time Cy Young Award winner said. "It could come next week, it could come in 2-3 months, who knows?
"I need a solid reason to do this," Clemens said. When asked what a solid reason would be, Clemens said, "To feel like I could contribute and to win, to know we have an outstanding chance to win and to be a part of something special."

Daisuke Matsuzaka has been close to disgusted with himself after his last two spring training starts, despite the fact he has allowed only one hit in 10 innings.
Matsuzaka repeatedly referred to ?struggling? after allowing only one hit in 5 2/3 innings in a 7-3 Red Sox victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates in Bradenton, Fla., on March 21. On Monday, when he held the Cincinnati Reds hitless for five innings, the 26-year-old right-hander was so annoyed with himself for issuing five walks that he stood up more than 50 reporters waiting for him at a makeshift interview area in Sarasota, Fla.
The pitcher told Japanese reporters yesterday that his concentration was off against the Reds. Manager Terry Francona was almost amused that it was an issue.
?You?re going to have to get used to his being unhappy, with probably a really low ERA,? Francona quipped.
