Terry Francona sent a text message in apology to Bobby Valentine after he held court with members of the Red Sox on Saturday afternoon at Yankee Stadium. The former Red Sox manager, who now works as an analyst, didn't want to step on Valentine's toes. "Yes, he sent the text message," the team's current manager said. "But it wasn't necessary." Francona and the Red Sox parted ways last year after the team was eliminated from the playoffs on the final day of the regular season.
