    Red Sox Nation have been nothing but class all weekend

    David Ortiz and the Red Sox organization honoring Albert Pujols last night at Fenway Park in his final trip to Boston.
    Not just Pujols, but the appreciation they've shown for Wainwright and Molina (currently injured) as the three of them continue their farewell tour makes me remember why I'm a MLB fan.













    Love them or hate them, the Red Sox Nation know their baseball, are loyal to their team to the bitter end, and appreciate the game.

    I've been paying attention to this Cardinal "2022 farewell tour" all weekend, being the MLB junkie that I am.
    The Red Sox organization have been nothing but all class all weekend.
    Makes me remember why I'm proud to be a MLB fan.

    Kudos Red Sox.

    Last time, last game today, 1:30

    Can't share your love of the Red Sox Nash (although that may be a byproduct of ESPN forcing them and the Yankees down our throats for decades now) but I'll say this in their favor--whenever I'm in a city with a MLB team I make it a point to take a tour of the stadium. The Red Sox absolutely have the best stadium tour of any I've been to.

    Best guess, I've been to Fenway fifty times.
    (Used to live and work in Boston)

    I've been to the Big Ball Orchard in the South Bronx countless of times, I've been to Wrigley, I've been all over, Fenway is not a stadium, it's a park, and it's probably the best venue to see a ball game.

    It's an experience like no other, right down to the greasy sausage grinders just outside the entrances.

    Where's my buddy BG, get in here dude.

    Cops must be tough up there

    Nash I’ve been to Fenway at least 50 times as well. Always a great experience. I’ll never forget the World Series game I went to in 2004. It was electric. Even a regular season game with Pedro pitching was always phenomenal.
    Sox fans gave Jeter a tremendous farewell also!

    I’m bias but I believe it’s the best ballpark experience there is and I’ve been to about 12 other MLB stadiums. Between the pregaming at all the bars & restaurants on landsdown street all the way up and down Boylston street, it’s a blast.

    Side note: Tons of St. Louis fans in town this weekend. In the city every other person walking seemed to have a Cardinals jersey on.

    I should clarify

    Boston fans in Boston are great regardless of the sport. Haven't been there in a minute but we have very good friends in the area and I'm not hating on New England specifically.

    Red Sox fans in California are terrible only surpassed by Yankees fans. Phillies aren't in the American league so I don't see them much.

    Eagles fans are hands down the worst in any sport.

    Got to admire the Boston respect for tradition.
    Kudos.


    The major drawback was the presence of
    the worst man to don a major league uniform.
    Scumbag Ortiz should not be allowed near anything
    resembling class.

    Nothing at all sticks out, typical Monday MLB slate, a crap shoot.
    Looking at a few things tomorrow.

    I'll take a night off before I force a play.

    Appreciate you reading my posts, thanks.
