| Going to Fenway is like going to the circus. | |

|
| Jason Varitek strikes a pre-game pose. | |

|
| That famous Pesky Pole, the rightfield foul pole. | |
 |
|
| The 2007 World Series turf? Yes! | |
 |
|
| The team gets ready for the "Oh, say can you see..." | |
 |
|
| Action! | |

| Amisdst the W-A-V-E ! Figure this: After going 9-10 vs. the Orioles in 2004, the Red Sox are 27-12 vs. Baltimore since the 2005 season began, and Boston has won 10 of the last 12 meetings at Fenway. |

| And then outside waiting for the players to come out of the stadium and drive off in their huge SUVs. |
|
| On May 15, 2007 the Red Sox at 26-11, have the best record in all of baseball, best of thirty teams. This year could be time for another World Series Championship Go Sox |
