Our first Red Sox game

On September 18, Luke and I went over to the Fens to see the Red Sox take on the Toronto Blue Jays. In true 2010 form, the Red Sox lost, but we had a great time and made some new friends.

We met up with fellow Boston Globe designer, Robert and his wife, Jennifer at the Other Side Cafe for dinner. We had a great time getting to know each other over food and beers. After dinner, we headed over to the stadium. This was Robert, Jennifer and I's first ever Red Sox game and Luke's second. Walking through the stadium in worth the ticket price itself. I felt like we had stepped back in time with the pillars, wood frames and old time signage. Even the announcer sounded like he was about to announce Babe Ruth up to bat.

Luke got our tickets from another Boston Globe designer that was a season ticket holder. We were in box seats along the third base line and right at the end of the row.

Despite the loss, we had a wonderful time with great friends, great seats and great weather. To see more pictures of the game, go to our Shutterfly account.
