Baseball is a numbers game, what with its RBIs and at bats and stolen bases and home runs and other stuff I can’t understand, so I decided to come up with my own set of baseball numbers:

Number of times I attended a baseball game prior to 2008: 1

Number of times I attended a baseball game after 2008: 3

Number of visits to Fenway Park prior to 2008: 0

Number of visits to Fenway Park after 2008: 5

Number of Red Sox Players I could name before 2008: 0

Number I can name now: 4 (on a good day)

Number of players my father can name: 0

Number of times he has won free tickets for a Red Sox game: 3

Number of time he’s actually attended the games: 0

Number of photos I took at today’s contest between the Kansas City Royals and the Boston Red Sox: 460

Number of photos that made the first, initial cut: 56

Number to be displayed here: lower than 56

Enough numbers, let’s look at some photos:
