Expertise
Boston Red Sox players, team & Fenway Park statistics and history are my strengths. Boston's minor league teams are not.
Experience
I've been attending Red Sox games yearly at Fenway Park since 1969. I thrive on Bosox trivia.
I have been a huge Red Sox fan since I was 12 years old.
My knowledge of Carl Yastrzemski is exceptional. He was my boyhood hero and I still miss his (hard-nose, give 100% every game) playing style to this day.
I 'live & die' with the Red Sox every season, game and even every inning.
