First, I am a Mets fan.
Second, I am a National League fan--I hate the designated hitter.
But, in the American League, I root for the Red Sox.
Today Fenway celebrated its 100th anniversary. I loved watching the pre-game ceremony. The Red Sox invited every player who ever wore a Red Sox uniform to attend. I barely knew a quarter of the players; yet, I started tearing up, later going into a full cry.
I only went to one game at Fenway about 20 years ago. I don't remember the opposing team; I do remember regreting not buying a "Hunt for Red October" t-shirt.
Fenway is a national monument: a great place to watch a ballgame.
Happy Birthday.
