It was definitely one of the best baseball games I've ever attended. To be witness to an event that only two dozen other players have ever accomplished... watching Manny Ramirez crack his 500th homerun.
It was pretty funny how just innings before the historic occasion, Manny let two moderately easy fly balls to left field drop or glance off his glove. However, once he swung at the first pitch of his late inning at bat, easily crushing his 500th homerun into right field, showing baseball fans just how amazing of a hitter he is, all was forgotten. And once again, Red Sox Nation was OK with Manny being Manny.
P.S. One guy in particular was trading $5 bills for ticket stubs. I wonder how much he'll get for them.
