To this day, you go to a Red Sox game, you go to a game at Fenway Park, I always see Beckett jerseys.

I always see Beckett jerseys.

I come back to sort of what I'm talking about, about how

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Life As A Postseason Hero, With Josh Beckett

Yeah, we like when players go on runs.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Life As A Postseason Hero, With Josh Beckett

We like when players are good.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Life As A Postseason Hero, With Josh Beckett

We like, sure, that's great.

And who knows, maybe this kid for Toronto, who's a couple years out of high school himself, Trey Yusavage, maybe we're going to be looking back and telling the same stories or whatever.
