Terry Francona doesn't think Boston's move to ban beer from the clubhouse is going to work. "I think it's a PR move," Francona said on ESPN Radio's "Mike and Mike in the Morning" show. "I think if a guy wants a beer, he can probably get one. You know, it's kind of the old rule ... If your coach in football says no hard liquor on the plane -- I mean, you serve beer and wine -- somebody's going to sneak liquor on the plane. "If you furnish a little bit, it almost keeps it to a minimum." Francona managed the Red Sox for eight seasons, but his tenure ended badly when the team missed the playoffs last fall.
