"Baseball got in me when I was little. It runs in my family, and it rubbed off on me. It's a disease."
—Dennis "Oil Can" Boyd, Red Sox pitcher (1982-1989)
Baseball is woven into the fabric of American life. For every New Englander, the Boston Red Sox are an institution: kids grow up listening to the Sox on the radio or watching ballgames with their families on a hot summer night. No Sox fan ever forgets his or her first visit to Boston's Fenway Park and its storied Green Monster. The dedication of “Red Sox Nation” is unmatched in the world of sports, and when the “Curse of the Bambino” was finally broken in 2004, New Englanders cheered and cried with joy.
500 GREAT BOSTON RED SOX QUOTES is the perfect companion to a baseball lover’s summer. It will rekindle those special memories of afternoons sitting in the bleachers at Fenway Park—the smell of the hot dogs, the crack of the bats, and the cheers of the crowd. Including memorable quotes by all-time greats like Cy Young, Babe Ruth, Ted Williams, and Carl Yastrzemski, to more current favorites like Pedro Martinez, Nomar Garciaparra, David Ortiz, and Dustin Pedroia—and many, many, players in between—this book will broaden every Red Sox fan’s love of the game.
"I went out to play the game of baseball because I love to play it. I did it right. I did it the right way. I worked hard doing it."
—Roger Clemens, Red Sox pitcher (1984-1996)
