NOTABLE

* Boston pitcher Pedro Martinez (9-3 record with a 1.44 ERA and 140 strikeouts) is on the disabled list because of a strained muscle on his left side and was not named to the American League’s 31-man roster. However Martinez--the MVP of last year’s All-Star game--will be introduced as if he were an All-Star and will sit on the AL bench.

* Cleveland outfielder Manny Ramirez, elected by fans to start in the outfield, is on the disabled list because of a strained hamstring and not expected to play.

* Baltimore third baseman Cal Ripken, on the disabled list because of a sore back, said he will try to play.

* Atlanta’s Bobby Cox and the New York Yankees’ Joe Torre are the managers.
