Red Sox Comeback Big On 9/11 (I Was At The Game)
Note: Thanks to Sox1Fan and Vivid Seats for the tickets to the game!
I took my brother-in-law and sister to the Red Sox game last night at Fenway Park and it was one of the best Sox games I have ever been to. The game started off pretty bad considering the devil rays tacked on a 8-0 lead going into the bottom of the 4th inning. However, like many othen, yr fans in Red Sox Natioou never give up on your team no matter how big the deficit is.
There wasn’t any big offensive action from the Red Sox until the forth inning when they scored 4 times in that inning, 3 runs in the fifth and 6 runs in the 6th.

Considering I was in the bleachers, and most of these were the infield and further, I was quite impressed with the zoom. Some of the photos aren’t as sharp as I would like but that was me moving the camera too quickly. They will get better.
