The outfield- the grass- is it spongy?

- Ben, focus.

- Sorry.

These seats are important to you, okay?

This is your summer family, your Uncle Carl.

- You love these seats.

- No. I fell in love with this when I was seven...

because I had nothing else.

Now I'm in love with you.

I don't need this.

I don't want this.

Wait. Wait, wait, wait.

You love me enough

to sell your tickets.

I love you enough

not to let you.

What do you say

we try to do all of it?

Let's try to jerk one

out of the park.

That's the sexiest thing

I've ever heard in my life.

Ma'am, you're gonna

have to come with me.

- Ben.

- Yeah?

I'm being arrested.

All right.

Let her go, buddy.

Never.

Well, you pretty much know the rest.

Rivera walks Millar.

Roberts pinch-runs and steals second.

Mueller drives 'em in.

Ortiz in extra innings.

Extra innings

again the next night.

Schilling's bloody sock

in New York.

L owe and Pedro

find their form.

Damon's grand salami

in game seven.

Bye-bye, Bambino.

Boston Red Sox have won the pennant!

So what am I saying? That it was

all karma because Lindsey came back to Ben?

Look. All I know is, when the Red Sox

went to St. Louis for the Series...

me and the girls

and Artie told them...

"You two gotta be there

to keep this thing goin'."

And they went,

and lo and behold-

Back to Foulke.

Red Sox fans have longed to hear it.

The Boston Red Sox

are world champions.

And that night

there was a blue moon and a total eclipse.

And those are the facts.

Oh. One more thing.

You know that little player

to be named later?

Ben says if its a boy,

they'll name him Ted Williams Wrightman.

If its a girl,

Carla Yastrzemski Wrightman.

Let's all pray for a boy.

Come to

Washington Square Tavern on Beacon Street...

where Sox fans hang-

...cars, SUVs, trucks and work trucks.

Come and get 'em at Cerrone Cadillac.

Ask for Kevin, and get your first drink free.

Remember. The Deluxe on Chandler and-

WEEl in Boston,

the Dennis and Callahan program.

Rolling. One, two, three. And-

- =TLF SUB TEAM=-

Let's go, Red Sox!
