Good morning!
Ten years ago last February, I wrote here that I couldn’t wait to take my newborn grandson Chase Greene to his first Red Sox game, and on July 1 that momentous occasion happened.
It was getaway day for the Red Sox, a rare weekday afternoon game, and April dropped Chase off at 8:30 a.m. dressed from head to toe in Red Sox garb. He got in the back seat and made himself comfortable. “On long car rides I like to take my shoes off because I tie my shoes very tight and it gets very annoying,” he said.
