The Cubs play the Boston Red Sox tonight at Fenway Park. According to MLB.com, it's the first visit of the Chicago franchise to Boston's Fenway since 1918.
Much of my love for Chicago is rooted in growing up a Cub's fan. Some of my best memories are of walking to Wrigley Field and of being a bat boy for the Cubs for a game in 1990. Even today, we live only a 10 min bike ride away from the park.
I also have a long history with the Red Sox having family in the Boston area. I will never forget watching the Red Sox Game 6 loss to the hated Mets in the 1986 World Series. Every baseball fan must visit Fenway for a game.
The Cubs trip to Fenway is more great national publicity for Chicago!
