Red Sox 2012

Baseball baby!  Well..since the epic Red Sox collapse of 2012, tickets were very cheap and we decided to squeeze a game into our busy schedule.  Little did we know our view would be obstructed by a massive beam.  As you will see, the organization has taken steps to ensure that we didn't miss anything in the game.  However, the Red Sox are celebrating their 100 year anniversary of Fenway Park, so Sarah got nostalgic.  AND, the previous two games we went to were rained out...we needed this one to be great...it was ok, but the food was GREAT. Shout out to Kettle Korn:)

If you ever buy tickets in the Grand Stands...look out for Section 4.  In the picture you can see that they put in a tv so that you can see home plate and first base, but it's just not the same.  From my seat I could see home plate, but not first base.  From Sarah's seat you could see first base, but not home plate.  Between the two of us, we could watch all the action.  The tv had a 5 second or so delay...so it was weird to be 5 seconds behind the rest of the crowd..who was watching it live. 

Watch out!

There they are: Youk at 3rd and Pedroia at 2nd.  They are our favorite members of the team. 

After the game we walked from Fenway to Downtown Crossing.  We took pictures along the way and this last one is part of Boston's skyline.  Sometimes we like living in this city.  This was one of those times.  It was almost 11:30pm and relatively quiet.  Everyone was out of town because most of the schools had graduated and it was Memorial Day weekend, so the working crowd wasn't there either.
