 A greAt dAy for the redSox And their fAnS
By Adam
 This game was the most amazing opening day game ev-er in the history of baseball. In Boston over just Fenway Park, it had been hailing and pouring all day, which is really strange but nobody really cared. The Sox game had already been delayed for 3 days, and they wouldn’t be delayed any longer. So they played through it. The Red Sox really wanted to win this game. They need-ed revenge on the now good (for now) Rays for beating the Sox in last season’s game 7 of the ALCS, taking away their chances of a repeat (they lost to the Phillies in the World Series in what could arguably be the least watched World Series of the decade). The Sox ace Josh Beckett had a no-hitter going through6 innings, but he also got at least a 60 minute rest betweeneach inning because the Sox scored 13 runs in the 1

th
and scored at least 5 runsin each inning. Their bats were so good that game, theRays used up all their pitchers on their roster so they hadto call up pitchers from the minors. Things got crazy during the 5
th
inning. A huge Sox fa-
natic ran onto the eld dressed in a Coke can costume.
It caused a 30-minute delay. Finally some random girl ina Pepsi can costume came and tackled him (even thoughCoke is way better than Pepsi). And as a gift to the fans since of the occasion, everyone was given a hamburger a Coke.Everyone liked that. The Sox ended up beating the Rays 100-2. Fans ran on-
to the eld after the nal pitch was thrown. They lifted
 Josh Beckett into the air. Everyone was awestruck.David Ortiz and Kevin Youkilis combined for 13 homeruns, 22 runs batted in, 3 triple baggers, 26 hits, and both hitfor a cycle. This 1-2 threat is arguably the best in the majorleagues, since the pair of Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz(who split up after last year’s last minute 3-way trade whichsent Manny to the Dodgers, some prospects from LA’s farmleague, to the Pirates, Jason Bay to the Red Sox, and someprospects from the Red Sox farm league to Pittsburgh). While offensively Ortiz and Youkilis dominated, people weren’t giving enough credit to former Rookie of the Yearand MVP, Dustin Pedroia, who single-handedly stoppedthe Rays offense. He handed the Rays at least 2 of the 3

eld in the morning. This is under investigation by local
policemen. 7 Months Later… The day of the Red Sox championship parade wasbeautiful. The sun was shining and everyone was excited. The Sox had won in a 4 game sweep of the Dodgers. Ev-ery one had a great day and they lived happily ever after(for the day at least).
 WAS it Jeter?

The Boston Red Sox won the game against the NewYork Yankees 100– 2.Everyone single person on the Red Sox, pitchers notincluded hit at least a home run.During this game, the rainpoured down in buckets!Drenched in the rain the Yan-kees tripped and ell, missingthe baseballs!In that inning, the sixth,the Red Sox got seventy-fveo their runs, leaving threemen on base, with no outs;when the Umpire gave theNew York Yankees a mercy rule.Only Mark Teixeira and Derek Jeter scored the onlyruns that game.During the seventh inning as a promotional gimmick,the Coca-Cola Company had a man dressed in a Coke bottle run onto the feld.To prove that Pepsi was tougher, a woman dressedin a Pepsi bottle tackled the Coke man. Ater that hap-pened, the Pepsi woman cheered and Wally had to comeout and stop her. The delay lasted 30 minutes. To pro-tect their image, Coke gave the crowd ree hamburgersand Coke.Josh Beckett pitched the game, stellar perormance,with Jonathon Papelbon closing out thegame. Every player on the Red Soxscored three runs.Ater the game, one o theYankees players, accompanied by a die-hard an, broke intothe ballpark, armed with a base- ball, a bat, and grafti, spray-paintedthe Green Monster with the New Yorksymbol, and let the signed baseballand bat at the scene.The mystery o who the die-hardan is still unknown. Authorities think that the playerin Derek Jeter because the bat said, “Derek Jeter, BOO!Red Sox! Yankees Rule! Green Monster STINKS! Love,Derek.”More inormation is still unknown.

 WReCking a BoSton monument
By Brad 
It was the bottom o the 9th, and the Red Sox werewinning 100-2, and the Rays were trailing by 20 miles.It is raining like hail and then rom its fzzy goodnessa guy in a Coke bottle ran onto the feld hitting all o theplayers he could hit.And as you know Coke and Pepsi are rivals and thena lady wearing a Pepsi can ran ater the man and did adiving tackle. To protect their ame Coke gave out reeCokes and hamburgers.Then ater the game a die-hard Yankees an snuckinto Fenway Park with a spray paint bottle and a base- ball bat signed by A-Rod and he spray-painted the Yan-kees logo.The next day when the Red Sox came or their dai-ly practice, they ound the Yankees logo on the GreenMonster and got really angry.So ater practice they set a sign at every pole closeto Fenway Park. 25 days later they ound who sprayedpainted the Green Monster. They ound who did it be-cause he let the bat, which had his ull name.So he had to go to jail or fve years or wrecking aBoston monument.

Then the hugeYankee ans painted the NY sign on a giant logo signon the Green Monster and did more Yankee signson the wall.Ater that, a guy dressed in a Coke bottle andran through the feld everyone was mad at him andthen a girl thought o something -- she dressed intoa Pepsi girl and she was 5 years old and ran throughthe feld and tackled at the Coke bottle and thecrowd said, “Yea yea yea yea!
