Red Sox v Rays

We made it to our first Red Sox ^[1] game of the season. We love our Boston Sports.

Our Right Field Box seats were so good! (so good, so good! ^[2] Ha!)

It had been drizzling all game long, and pretty cold, but we were prepared.  We dressed like we were headed to a Pats game – double pants, plastic ponchos, snow boots…

So there we are sitting in the drizzle all game, then all of sudden, 1/2 inning to go, they call rain delay!  WHAT?  We realized the game was tied, but really?  You can’t at least wait one more 1/2 inning of drizzle to see if we can end this in regulation?  Good grief.  Still a fun night was had!

Plus, we love being able to walk to and from Fenway ^[3] from our place.  Also, we generally walk back from the Garden ^[4] after C’s games too!  We’ve been getting our exercise in!  I guess while I’m mentioning it, we walked to/from the Wang ^[5] (Atoms For Peace concert ^[6]) and the House of Blues ^[7] (Dropkick Murphys concert ^[8]).  I’m like a Boston salesman!

So update, they didn’t honor tickets for people who were at the rain suspended game – instead they played it playground-style, finishing it the next night, before starting game 2 of the series.  Turns out the Sox lost (1-3 ^[9]) – kinda nice we saw a tie!
