Red Sox Game
On Friday night, Mb and I got to go to a Red Sox game. Marybeths mom bought the tickets for me for my Birthday and got them for when they were playing the Dodgers which she knows I like as well. It was a really fun game and it was fun to see another LA - Boston matchup. I am one of the few that Rooted loud and hard for the Lakers and then turns around and roots for the Red Sox.
Here is our few from our seats. The view was a lot closer than it appears to be hear. It was really fun to be there and to be right in the action. There were a lot of Dodger fans there and at one point they started chanting Let's go Lakers. Then Boston fans came back with BEAT LA!! It was really funny to be in the midst of all that.
They won of course and it was a really fun game with a couple of home runs and a fun atmosphere. (And with the win the Redsox are now 1 game behind the Yankees and yes that was directed at you Seth Robins, look out we're right behind you. j/k)
The best part of the night was all the looks Marybeth got at the game. Not only because she is 37 weeks pregnant but because of the shirt she is wearing. We saw it a few months ago and thought it would be fun for her to wear it to the game and so Mb's mom got it for her and it was a perfect shirt to wear to the game.
Here I am having a Fenway Frank, (I was thinking that both the Dodgers and the Red Sox are so lucky to have alliteration on their side, Dodger Dogs)
Marybeth was really excited to get ice cream for a couple of reasons. #1 she has loved ice cream as of late, and so that in and of itself was a treat, but she also wanted the souvenir that comes with it, which is a little red sox helmet. It brought back memories of the days when Marybeth used to go to the games, and something for our son to have in his room.The big part of the game was the fact that Manny Ramirez made his first trip back to Fenway Park. I am indifferent, but I recorded the crowds reaction when his name was announced for the first time. It sounds like a lot of cheers but I think there were more boos. Plus you can get a nice close up of Mb's shirt. (The Loud guy on the video is the very drunk and obnoxious man that was behind us then in the wrong seats and moved next to us, yeah that was fun.)

Small world, my husband and brother were at the game too! They flew out Thursday and were excited to be at the game - my husband is a Dodgers fan and my brother is a Red Sox fan. They were sitting 20 seats to the 1st base side of Pesky Pole. They said they thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment provided for them by the drunks next to them. My husband was proud to show his Laker/ Dodger spirit and was so impressed with how sportsmanlike and courteous the Boston fans were. He says they definitely have class! Glad you guys had fun and I LOVE MB's shirt!!
