Collateral Damage: I had tears in my eyes listening to the ovation he received from the fans.
Don loved it:
... Billy threw the ceremonial pitch to Dewey Evans. Dewey Evans! The tens of thousands of fans at Fenway applauded so long and so hard that Billy broke down and cried. The man cried. Years of scorn were finally lifted. All has been forgiven. All is right with the universe.
I love the Sox, and I fucking love the game of baseball overall. Tradition, camaraderie, history, protagonists, antagonists, individual achievements, teams overcoming adversity and against all odds ... there is simply no other game on the face of the planet which compares. ...
Jimmy: It was just a nice little moment:
If there's a guy who has been unjustifiably shit upon by the collective ass of New England, it's Bill.
He deserves his day.
