This is why I work in baseball. During my 19 season span I’ve questioned (sometimes daily) why I work in baseball. Last night is why. Tonight’s win is why. September is why. October is why. And most importantly the bond of the band of folks I work with is why. We are a team. All of us that sit behind the walls of Fenway Park. Last night was what baseball dreams are made of. We’ve been on the other side of that win but last night catapulted everything forward. Today we were busy. The emails came fast and furious. The phone calls happened. The questions endless. The office vibe was exciting and fun and ready. We are tired but we are ready. We are the Red Sox. We don’t quit. We fight. We win. We are Boston. Born to win…and strong. 
We are one. We laugh together. Cry together. Swear together. Yell together. We do everything together for months at a time consecutively. There is not a day of the season we aren’t connected in some way. The force is real. We protect one another and we all just get it. We get what we do. We understand that we are in a position that is cherished. We know. So as tired as I feel I’m ok with answering the same questions over and over again, I’m good with the unknown ahead of me. I love guessing what could be and where this might take us. Isn’t that what this is all about? I’m proud to say I work for the Red Sox because the group of people that I work with daily know a side of me that even my family would never understand. It’s the guts and glory that goes into being a Red Sox employee. It’s the good the bad and the ugly. It’s the understanding that even when the season is terrible you keep at it and when the season is awesome – I don’t have words to capture that feeling. We keep at it because we all love baseball and more importantly love the Red Sox and these people that I work with daily are my family too.
