Back in the 40′s my dad’s dad went to his first major league baseball game – in Fenway Park. Being as my grandpa was from Georgia, this was somewhat odd – except for the fact that there was no major 
league baseball team anywhere near Georgia in the 1940′s. This experience had a profound effect on his baseball following life – and he was a lifelong Red Sox fan.
I can remember watching the Red Sox with him when I was a wee tyke. And so, I have always considered myself a Sox fan of sorts. Tonight, by the grace of God and the elements of nature that he divinely created, I was able to go to Fenway Park for the first time. Hopefully, not the last.

The Sox won, 10 to 3.
It was a joy for me to see you at Fenway Park. I am so glad that God allowed you to enjoy this dream of yours. I hope it was all you dreamed it would be!
I didn’t know about this piece of Lee family trivia. And a win to boot. Thanks for sharing. Strangely enough, my first major league game was in Camden Yards…
Hey there Kathy Lee, baby – the only way it could have been better – is if you were there with me! Here’s to hoping that we get to catch the Sox together, and soon.
Much love,
