Game 1 A.D.

Monday, April 3, 2017 – Fenway Park, Section 32 Red Sox 5, Pirates 3 Every year, I make the same tweet on the morning of the home opener: #OpeningDay is my favorite holiday. Sorry, Christmas! — Kristen C (@Red_Sox_Diehard) April 3, 2017 Though this marked my 17th Fenway Park Opening Day, there were a couple […]

We’re Home

Monday, April 11, 2016 – Fenway Park, Section 30 Orioles 9, Red Sox 7 Opening Day – the “real” one, at home – is my favorite day of the year.  This year it reminded me of a scene in the lastest Star Wars movie: My favorite pictures from the day follow: Although the Red Sox […]

There’s No Place Like Home

Monday, April 13, 2015 – Fenway Park, Section 32 Red Sox 9, Nationals 4 This year’s home opener was my fifteenth Fenway Park Opening Day.  It’s always a welcome sight, but after a disappointing season last year and a record-setting snowfall all winter, plus the fact that we were already 13 days into April, I […]

Ringing In The New Year

Friday, April 4, 2014 – Fenway Park, Section 42 Brewers 6, Red Sox 2 I had good luck over the winter when the four-game Sox Pax went onsale, and I managed to get through the Virtual Waiting Room early enough to get a package that included Opening Day before they sold out.  So while I […]

A Warm Welcome Home

Monday, April 8, 2013 – Fenway Park, Section 36 Red Sox 3, Orioles 1 Opening Day at Fenway Park is always one of my favorite days of the year.  Thanks to events like Christmas at Fenway (coupled with the Fenway Park Yard Sale) and Truck Day, plus my trip to spring training, I feel connected […]

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 […]

You’ve Gotta Start Somewhere

Friday, April 8, 2011 – Fenway Park, Section 36 Red Sox 9, Yankees 6 To say the Red Sox hadn’t gotten the season off to a good start would be an understatement.  They had stumbled through Texas and Cleveland and found themselves with a dismal 0-6 record, which was especially stunning considering the improvements they […]

Happy Easter!

Sunday, April 4, 2010 – Fenway Park, Section 38 Red Sox 9, Yankees 7 Easter Sunday wouldn’t have been my first preference for an Opening Day game.  It was weird to have it at night, and I’d rather ease into the season a little bit before diving right in to a Red Sox/Yankees matchup.  But […]

Well Worth the Wait

Tuesday, April 7, 2009 – Fenway Park, Section 41 Red Sox 5, Rays 3 On Tuesday morning I got up early and went in to work for half a day. I left just after noon, and was happy to be able to find a parking space at the T station without any problem. That got […]

Making a Dry Run

Monday, April 6, 2009 Opening Day, Take 1 I made an Opening Day dry run this morning – emphasis on the word “dry,” because it wasn’t raining when I got to Fenway at 10:00. In past years, I’ve had trouble getting a parking space at a T station for weekday games. One year I was […]
