Baseball is back AND the Red Sox are in 1st place!!

Yes, I know, we still have 161 more games to go in the season, but it is always nice to be in first place :)

The Red Sox played the Phillies today and won 8-0!!  They hit FIVE home runs!!

Pedey (Dustin Pedroia) hit two solo home runs. Moooookie Betts hit a solo home run, Hanley Ramirez hit a sola home run, and then later hit a Grand Slam!! Clay Buchholz struck out nine!

The photo above is from the Portland Press Herald. It’s a photo of David Ortiz congratulating Pedey after one of his two home runs. The photo is linked to the article about the game today. Please check it out for more details of the game.

I only got to see the highlights since I was at work all day, but I am very grateful that it was so easy to find video highlights of all of the home runs as well as Clay’s great pitching and recaps of the game. I no longer have to sit and wait and wait and wait for ESPN or the MLB Network to get around to covering the Red Sox game.

What a great way to start off the new season! I always have high hopes at the beginning of the season, but I have a feeling this is going to be a great season for the Red Sox. At the very least, it is going to be fun!
