Diamondbacks 4, Boston Marathon 1: That Will Do Nicely
[Ed. Note: At the top of the broadcast, while a number of us in the Gameday Thread were reacting with confusion and bemusement to the Boston “City Connect” uniforms that were in use today, Steve and Bob explained that the yellow-and-blue color scheme was apparently intended as an homage to the official color palette of the Boston Marathon. I assume the sans-serif typeface for “Boston” on the front of the journeys was as well. In any event, that’s why the headline invokes the Boston Marathon, which this year was held on tax day, April 15, and was won by Sisay Lemma of Ethiopia on the men’s side, and Helen Obiri of Kenya on the women’s side. In case you were wondering.]

The Boston Bruins are still without their star goaltender Jeremy Swayman signed as training camp approaches. Head coach Jim Montgomery has now commented. Jeremy Swayman's consistent elite performance as Linus Ullmark's backup, then 1B, and then 1A led the Boston bruins to trading the 2023 Vezina Trophy winner to the Ottawa Senators in exchange for a first round pick (which became 6 foot 7 centreman Dean Letourneau) and goaltender Joonas Korpisalo.
Springsteen Was the First Rocker to Play Boston’s Fenway Park
Boston's Fenway Park has seen its share of action in the 100-plus years it has been active. For my money, the 2004 American League Championship Series between the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees that led to Boston's first World Series title in 86 years was about as exciting as it gets.
