Its always nice to see a game like this every once in a while.The Red Sox started there nine game home stand on the right foot by handing Jamie Moyer one of his worst loses in his 24 year career defeating the Phillies 12-2. The Sox bats exploded right from the get go with all 12 of their runs coming in the first three innings.
David Ortiz had a huge night with 3 hits and 4 RBIs. I think its fair to say that his bat is back, and he is getting back into his groove. He must have perfected his recipe for mango salsa, (watch video by clicking on his name). This commercial was the muse behind the famous Papi Dog, mango salsa on a Fenway Frank.
I watched last nights game at St. Mark Ale House with some friends. When I arrived at the bar I asked the bartender if he could change the channel to the game. At this point i heard something that I have never heard before, "we only put the Red Sox on the tvs in the back of the bar"... As a Boston fan living in New York I have heard a lot of crap from the locals, but this one really made me laugh. Fan Segregation is a new one. Good Fah Yooh St. Marks Ale House, you know how to make a guy feel welcome.
In an hour the US will match up against the Brits in their first round World Cup match. I will be heading to Croxley Ales for the festivities. I will be back later today with the wrap up of that experience, which will be my first Soccer experience in NY. Hope everyone enjoys the game!
USA, USA, USA!!!
