Stuck in the Middle with You
Wednesday, May 2, 2012 – Fenway Park, Section 33
A’s 4, Red Sox 2
It was a week and a half before I got back to Fenway. The previous homestand had ended with a disturbing 15-9 loss in a game which the Sox had led 9-0, and then a merciful rainout. The team’s luck changed on the [...]
The Centennial
Friday, April 20, 2012 – Fenway Park, Right Field Roof Box Standing Room
Yankees 6, Red Sox 2
On Friday, I made my way back in to Fenway for the third straight day. But this wasn’t just any game – it was a celebration of the ballpark’s 100th anniversary. I left the house earlier than I had [...]
Unde-pen-dable
Wednesday, April 18, 2012 – Fenway Park, Section 43
Rangers 6, Red Sox 3
The opening homestand started off well, with the Red Sox taking 3 of 4 from the Tampa Bay Rays. Now last year’s A.L. Champion Texas Rangers were in town, and I was heading in for the first game of the year in my [...]
Home Cooking
Friday, April 13, 2012 – Fenway Park, Section 33
Red Sox 12, Rays 2
Opening Day at Fenway Park is always exciting, no matter how the season may start off on the road. That’s a good thing, because for the second straight year the team got off to a less-than-stellar start, stumbling through a 1-5 opening road [...]
Welcome to JetBlue Park
Saturday, March 3, 2012 – JetBlue Park, Ft. Myers
Game 1 – Red Sox 25, Northeastern University 0
Saturday was my last day in Ft. Myers, but it was my first chance to see a game in brand new JetBlue Park. We got there early and went in when the gates opened two hours before the game. [...]

Spring Training Workouts
When we arrived at the complex at 9:00 on Thursday, we saw that the players had gotten an early start. We stopped to watch Carlos Silva throwing on one of the mounds, when we realized that the players had already come out to the agility field to begin stretching, ahead [...]
Futures At Fenway
Saturday, August 20, 2011 – Fenway Park, Section 32
Game 1 – Mets 6, Sea Dogs 4, 11 inn.
With the Red Sox on the road in Kansas City, Fenway Park played host to what is now an annual event, the Futures at Fenway minor league doubleheader. It was my first time attending this event, and I [...]
Double (Or Should I Say Triple) Your Pleasure
Tuesday, August 16, 2011 – Fenway Park, Section 43
Game 1 – Red Sox 3, Rays 1
The Red Sox went 3-3 on a road trip to Minnesota and Seattle, but they were home for a very strange two-day, three-game homestand before heading out on the road again. There was a doubleheader on Tuesday with an afternoon [...]
Rain – What a Surprise!
Sunday, August 7, 2011 – McCoy Stadium, Pawtucket
After attending Saturday afternoon’s exciting win over the Yankees, I got home around 9:30. But at 10:30, I was on my way out again, this time headed to work for a midnight implementation. (I work in IT, so many of our projects have to go in overnight, when [...]
Leadoff Leadership
Saturday, August 6, 2011 – Fenway Park, Section 33
Red Sox 10, Yankees 4
After two exciting walkoff wins, the Red Sox dropped their final game against the Indians and the first game of the Yankees series. Saturday’s matchup of John Lackey against C.C. Sabathia may have looked daunting on paper, but I was encouraged by the [...]
