Lowe pitches a 2 hitter...did that LA too....still trying to figure out why we didn't need him...dang...it all goes back to him running around on his wife with that reporter...just didn't sit well with our new owners....dang....gonna need a lot of runs this year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gary, I don't watch a lot of baseball, but I did enjoy watching your boy Lowe pitch for us Sunday night...
Well guys it was worth the wait.. I decided I want to live at Fenway ! Just set myself up in one of EMC boxes
I heard a guy say it should be made the 8th wonder of the world.. lol
We were a little late getting into our seats and missed the 'surprise' entry of players from the grandstand seats, high-fiving all the way down the rows.. people were flipping out.. I was told they weren't anywhere near us, Thank goodness, I would have died if I missed that !
I was honored to be sitting in back of a 24 year old young man who is being deployed to Afghanistan at the end of the month, his 3rd tour.. when we shook his hand and thanked him for his service he said "thank you but its my job maam'" ... oh geez.. I had tears in my eyes... it was his first game ever... people were buying him food and souvineirs... he couldn't hold it all in his lap.
It was just a great day... and everyone sang to me during the 8th inning..
I was treated to a new hat and shirt
The parker and snow pants came in handy, it was FREEZING... nothing like April baseball in Boston..
Ok... sorry to go on and on.. I have to go catch up on what all of your teams have done... nite all...

Aww, Caroline that sounds like the perfect nite out. From the guy sitting in front of you; who's going on tour, to the magenta parka, the new hat and shirt, everything. I am jealous. But know you did us proud cheering on the WINNING team.
Of course it was cold. It wouldn't be New England Weather. ... today may as well be 15 degrees warmer, and tomorrow 30 degrees colder. Right.
Ahh, Caroline, you are too sweet. I am glad to hear you all giddy about the game. I've got to live through someone who's been there... to the opening game mind you. I'll let you know if we end up going to a game. Dh always has something up his sleeves, and he's been talking a lot about going to see them.
Caroline....I loved reading about your day at Fenway!! I love that place so much! I don't know when my Fenway game is yet....my dad shares season tickets with some friends of his and I usually get to go to one of the games a year with my dad.
Gary I am liking Khalil Greene. He is settling in very nicely and had a good spring. Just wish he would cut his hair.
Although my daughter is true BLUE through and through (to her daddy and our DODGERS)...her husband is a padre fan as you may remember...if she was "FORCED" to watch them play she would root for Khalil...that hair ain't going nowhere!

SWEET-C I think the Sox...red ones...are the only one of our TEAM 3FC here that the Dodgers don't play....bummer
I just watched a 'replay' of yesterdays game, do most local sports stations offer this ? ...
Sometimes the padres channel here does.
Gotta go... game starts at 7pm
I promise not to be this obnoxious all season
Watching the Rays and Sox here...sorry SWEET-C and BILL....still a few innings...
Being from Ontario...I cheer for the Blue Jays. But it was hard concentrating on the opening game with a snow storm out. And tonights game just sucked. I have big hope and faith in Mr. Cito Gaston. Please Coach whip this team into shape! I want to take my kids to a game they will remember as awesome. Not just over paid ninnies!
Red Sox tied for first place
