When the Red Sox take the field in Oakland on Friday, I will have just completed my 53rd trip around the sun on this rock we call Earth. Matt and I will be in attendance at that game. I don’t know where he got the tickets, but we’ll be sitting somewhere behind home plate. How cool is that to be living 3k miles from Fenway and getting to see the Sox play on your birthday? I doubt this will ever happen again. Last time I saw the Sox play the A’s, Wake had a perfect game through 5 innings, and a no-no going into the 8th. Hopefully my birthday mojo will work for Clay, too. With ‘Tek catching. Woo Hoo! Thank you, Matt!
(And if you’re watching the game on TV, I’ll be the guy behind home plate wearing the Red Sox cap.)
