The TRIFECTA is COMPLETE

On Wednesday, September 12th, I attended the Boston Red Sox game at Fenway Park. This game completed my trifecta - Yankee Stadium in New York (date), Wrigley Field in Chicago (date), and Fenway Park in Boston (9/12/07). These are the only baseball parks left where true history has taken place. All of these parks are like churches to the baseball enthusiast. They are older than dirt, and for the most part dumps, but they are visits that I will remember for the rest of my life.

The game was incredible - the Red Sox were down 4-3 in the bottom of the 9th, with a man on first. Big Papi came to the plate. Ortiz had already hit a 3 run HR in the 3rd inning. On a 1-1 count, Papi hit a towering fly ball that made it's way to the right field seats. The crowd went crazy...it was amazing.
