Red Sox: theologians watch!

by Philocrites

Earlier this evening, the Philocrites family stood in the brisk wind in Harvard Square, watching the bottom of the sixth and top of the seventh innings on a TV in the window of Cardullo's. (Now that's customer service.) With us in the crowd of anxious fans was the most dedicated theological librarian in Red Sox Nation. After we saw the Red Sox tie the game, we scurried home. Here in the Philocrites household, we're thrilled for the Red Sox and biting our nails for the Cubs.

Folks, even Mrs Philocrites is excited. The last time she was a baseball fan — rooting for the Mets in '86 — her team went all the way. That bodes well for the Sox, that's all I have to say.
