Our First Red Sox Game



On April 24, Erin and I were able to go to our first Red Sox game at Fenway Park! Sorry, but Tropicana Field doesn’t count. Thanks to a kind colleague of ours, we had great front row seats in right field where we could lean over and touch the dirt on the field. It was amazing to see a game played in a park with such a rich history.



And it wouldn’t be an outing without an excuse to shop, so Erin and I took the opportunity to pick up two shirts and two ball caps. (Mine has Matsuzaka’s name written on it in Japanese letters---pretty cool!)

This shot isn’t from where we were seating, but we were over to the left a bit. I just wanted to get a nice pic of the field.

I figured this would be a fun shot for those who know how good these dogs are.

This is a shot of the two new Sox fans. I can’t say that I’m a big baseball fan, but it’s really fun to people watch in Fenway, and you get to meet the real Bostonians up close. Nothing is better than hearing the older fans sit and complain about every single person in the batting order and critiquing every play in the outfield. Hilarious!

This is a picture of our good friend Sheila, on the left, and her friend Leona. They both came to the game and tailgated with us beforehand.
