Who throws the first pitch?

[SCM33]

Curly Hair boyfriend said he thought it would be Bill Buckner.

 

I would really enjoy seeing the ovation BillyB gets in the bandbox, I think it would be a really great thing not only for the organization, but for him to realize that as petty as we were for blaming him.....we have forgiven him, and hopefully he forgives us for our selfishness and pettiness.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Maybe they retire a number, and that guy throws out the first pitch?

 

They claimed it would be a chilling moment, and as we know, the new Sox management team, and ownership really do wonderful things when it comes to special moments. They really go over and beyond.

 

So.......whos it gunna be?????

 

I hope Buckner.

Don't know who it will be. I'm stuck at work, but have my XM on my desk, so I'll have a listen. Unfortunately, I have a regular weekly meeting that lasts an hour or so that starts at 2:00.

It sucks that even though I have mlb.tv AND mlb Extra Innings, I cannot watch the pregame. It's so stupid. They should make an exception for WS winners on opening day.

It was on MLB.tv! You had to actually tune into baseballchannel.tv, not the game feed, which still has not begun.

Bill Buckner!!! That was fantastic to see him out there, getting emotional. It's the 1st inning right now and I still got chills....

 

It's going to be another great season.

 

GO SOX!!!

I feel good for Buckner, but the whole notion that he needs to be "forgiven" is a little foolish to me.

 

I hear he got a standing O on opening day in 1990. It seems like we had already "forgiven" him.

 

Besides, Sox fans know McNamara was the real ******* in all of that.
