I have been to a major league All-Star Game (Seattle Kingdome, 1979) and seen big league action at Ebbets Field in Brooklyn, the Polo Grounds and Yankee Stadium in New York and Wrigley Field in Chicago. But, until two weeks ago, there were still three ambitions to fulfill for me as a baseball fan.
Making visits to Fenway Park in Boston and the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y., and seeing a World Series game in person are the goals I had to reach, and I can check off two of them after going to Massachusetts and watching Games 1 and 2 of the 2007 Fall Classic between the Boston Red Sox and Colorado Rockies Oct. 23-24.
If you've been to fabulous Fenway, you know what it's like, and the experience of actually being in what they bill as "Major League Baseball's Most Beloved Ballpark" is simply awesome. If you have never gone to Fenway, you've got to get there.
