Well, you've probably heard by now that the Red Sox lost tonight. Bummer, but its all good. Oakland traveled all the way to Japan to play baseball;they should go home with a win too.

Hi guys-Your pictures are great. We knew about the game, Daddy actually had it on-you know him he turns it on for a second or two and then goes to something else atleast you got to see the first home run of the season. All I can say is thank goodness for Mc Donalds. The food may be alittle strange, but it looks like you're having a GREAT time. Love Ma.
I say "and her husband" because Greg is really a fan by marriage only. Everyone thinks that's funny - especially now that we're going all the way to Japan to see the Red Sox. He just really wants to go to Japan. (Plus he's a good husband who tolerates my baseball obsession: "I'll see one game a year. That's it," he says. Last year it was 3 games. This year it'll be 2, maybe 3). And if it wasn't for our Japanese friend Rui (who we met at a Red Sox game...) it wouldn't have occured to either one of us to visit Japan now.
Rui lives in Japan. He was on vacation when we met him at a Yankees game at Fenway Park in September. Our seats were so far back, we were behind the scoreboard! But, Rui sat next to us and there were high-fives between us all day as the Red Sox scored 10 runs and finally beat the Yankees (Their only win of the 6 games they played at the end of last year). Greg gave Rui his email address and we've been in touch ever since.
Skip ahead until about a month ago. Greg got an email from Rui telling him that he had tickets for us if we wanted to come to see the Red Sox in Japan. So, we cashed in Greg's frequent flier miles and off we go to Japan!
