You know, when I was a kid growing up just outside of Boston... On a hot summer day with nothing to do I’d take the trolley to Fenway Park for about a dime and get into Fenway with a “General Admission” ticket. I spent a more than few summer afternoons as a kid sitting in the sun up in the grandstand on the first base side...
It’s like the ocean, it just gets into your blood...

Drew must feel the karma of my positive negative alternate reality hex that I put on him.

You can see the Indians deflating here. It’s a tough place to be.

ground rule double—they called it the bermuda triangle.
I was about to say same thing...that nickname has been
used for center field “triangle” at Fenway
