Play Ball! | Stop. Look. Shoot.

Play Ball!

One of the best birthday gifts I received in 2012 was a trip to Red Sox Spring Training in Fort Myers, Florida, from my partner, Susan. We had a great weekend and it was just awesome to spend the weekend on the one great sports obsession I have: The Boston Red Sox.
