Red Sox game with Steve Oldak

Nice Seats !!!
Well, finally got to see my first SOX game of the year thanks to cousin Steve Oldak from Somerville. He scored a pair of 2nd row seats in the "State Street Pavillion" (never sat here, usually I can only afford bleacher seats or standing room). Beautiful night for a ballgame at Fenway against the Angels (of Anaheim).

We checked out the new "Bleacher Bar" which is located under the bleachers at Fenway. If you watch the games, its right behind the big overhead garage door in center field. It has a 2-way mirror on the inside so patrons can watch batting practice and the game from inside but the players can't see inside.


(I almost got booted taking pix because "NO flash photography" is allowed and my camera would automatically pop open the flash because of the lighting conditions. I had to use my charm with the waitress and explain that I'm a POLOCK and don't know how to use my own camera...DUH...

We ended up losing the game 6-2 ... and almost got NO-HIT by John Lackey, Pedroia broke it up with one out in 9th inning ...PHEW !!!
