It's Been A Long Time!!

    Well hello there!! To answer your questions, yes I am still alive and yes I am still in Massachusetts.
     It has been a crazy few weeks up here with everything going, and also the fact that I've come to find out that being a Media Director for a baseball team is almost literally a 24-hour job, and seven days as week as well.
     Since the last time I made a post on my blog, I got to spend a few days running around Boston getting to see the sights and came very close to eating a oyster!! Yuck!! But some things came up and we couldn't do that anymore. While in Boston I got to go to Bunker Hill which was cool because it looked like a minature Washington Monutment, and plus in the movie "The Town" they use that place in the first few scenes of the movie. So yes I feel  a little cooler now.
     Also while in Boston I went down to the harbor and saw the USS Constitution, which was cool, and I bought a nice picture book from the gift shop for my coffee table. I thought it would be a nice conversation starter.
    Anyways I got to go to Fenway Park as well, I forgot to write a post about that and that shocks me. So back on June 27, the NECBL and Team USA played a game there and I got to cover it. I got to go down onto the field of Fenway Park, which was really cool and do post-game interviews. I also made the roster sheets for the game, and my recap of the game was used on the Official NECBL website as the recap of the game. It still is actually still running on the home page of the website along with my Tom Murphy story.
    I wrote a story about one of our players that got signed by Team USA for the series against Japan and he is with them for one more day as they wrap up that series tomorrow in Omaha, Neb.
    So let's see what else is there....well I've gotten to do play-by-play for a few games now which has been cool and definitely a neat experience. I just got done calling the second game of the doubleheader we had tonight which was I think the fifth or sixth game I've called this summer. A little low on the number I wanted to walk away with, but being the Media Director keeps me busy a lot of the time.
      Oh I also got to meet Bernie Carbo and that was cool. He gave me a signed baseball card and that is going to be an awesome addition to my collection!!!
     Well time to hit the hay, I'll try and get better about posting on my blog. I promise.
