. . . The year is 2018; the rare occurrence of two blue moons, tragic events at Fenway, the appearance of a mysterious scorekeeper, the deal for a Yankee superstar, and several mystical forces challenge the powerful new team owner, the beleaguered Red Sox team, and the fans in the city of Boston . . .
Blue Moon Over Fenway follows the peculiar events that occurred over the course of a season when the Red Sox won the American League pennant and played the Chicago Cubs in a rematch of the World Series of a hundred years before. After the Red Sox won their second World Championship in eighty-nine years, the team and everything related to it deteriorated rapidly. Ten disastrous seasons, a series of new owners, and the decline of the Fenway Park locale plagued the club, and Red Sox fans began to doubt that there had actually been atonement for the “original sin” of selling Babe Ruth. It appeared that the Curse had not been broken—only interrupted. Then, a scandal that involved the best pitcher in the majors forced a miraculous midseason deal that sent the Yankee ace, C. J. Panthro, to the rejuvenated Red Sox, who were chasing their first championship in over a decade. The time had come to truly purge the sin that had been committed so many lifetimes before and to finally redeem the Boston Red Sox Baseball Club . . .
