| The Fenway Crowd Gathers—FenwayNation Photo |
If you were just there for the glitter and glory of Fenway's 100th Birthday, the day couldn't have been better. The NOG and the Mad Dentist were at their best with emotional, classy demonstrations of Red Sox history. From Pedro to Pesky, over 200 former Red Sox players emerged from center field to a real 'Field of Dreams' on this day. The loudest roars were for Terry Francona (along with chants of 'Tito!, Tito!') and Pedro Martinez—with Nomar not far behind. It was a first class show.
The game, one the other hand, was
a one-sided slam-fest that went the way of the Evil Ones, 6-2. Clay Buchholz coughed up five solo home runs, and the Quadruple A Red Sox line-up was no match for the Yankee staff. Good pomp, bad circumstance.
