Heh, I see Crede made the All-Star team. Maybe that'll pump his trade value up enough so we can dump him and bring Fields back up.
That, and a World Series title, would make this season perfect.

This team has been so much fun to watch. I went to the game on Saturday and was given 1st row seats next to the Sox On-deck circle as a gift. It was the most amazing sports experience of my life. I made a sign that said "Hey AJ, I'll trade my wife for an autograph - I'm Not Kidding!!!". AJ was helping Floyd warm up between innings and he saw my sign and laughed. The next inning he came out and said, "Hey Buddy" and threw me a ball. I was so excited and kept screaming thank you. Then, I turned over the ball and there was his signature. I could not believe that he did that, it was so awesome. Ozzie also gave his lineup cards to our friends after the game. In the 7th inning, the ump stopped the game because dumb me was holding a sign over the wall. I was so scared I was going to be thrown out. I was just really excited and wasn't thinking clearly. He was a great ump and laughed about it. I still can't stop thinking about the game and all of the crazy stuff that happened. The best part about the whole game is that they won

It has been a fun season and Saturday was unreal.
