Greetings Sox Fans!
On May 11th, Polar Park came to life opening the gates to Fans to begin the 2021 season. Due to the pandemic social distancing guidelines, there were some hiccups with the seating of Fans. However, together we all worked through it enjoying the games, the food and drink, and of course the Majestic ballpark!
During the month of May, everything was a first. First pitch, first out, first stolen base, first home run, and who can forget the first Grand Slam by Kiki Hernandez on a rehab assignment. The grand slam ball was located by members of…

Welcome, WooSox Fans to Rollin’with Rick's blog.
This is a blog that I wrote after the 2019 season about Hitting Coach, Rich Gedman. Included in the original title: Geddy, One Heck of a Guy!
Hope you enjoy it. Thanks for reading.
With the season now over, everyone has a little time to catch their breath with a few days off.
The end of the season is somewhat bittersweet. We have more time for ourselves, but you miss the excitement of the games, the entertainment and of course the Fans.
Personally, I’m going to miss Rich Gedman, PawSox…

NATIONAL BOBBLEHEAD DAY
Each year on January 7th, National Bobblehead Day recognizes a day of celebration for all spring-connected head bobbing figurines.

With the World Series underway, it gives Sox Fans a chance to see Mookie in action with the Dodgers.
For throwback Thursday, this was the blog from September 10th, 2015:
Today is somewhat of a gloomy day. Not only is the weather gloomy but today we have to pack up the Governor’s Cup and transport it to Scranton. I will be leaving later tonight to make the sad trip. Indianapolis Indians beat the Scranton RailRiders in the first playoff game 7–3. But let's forget about that for now….
Every year after our bobblehead giveaway we make arrangements…

We've all been there. We decide to go out and eat, then spend a lot of time deciding where to go. One of the things that Rhode Island is known for is the great restaurants, and that makes it more difficult to decide. You'll always hear, “I don't care where we go.” That's followed by, that's too far, the wait is too long, etc. Sometimes what follows is, “Let's just order pizza delivery.”
Like everyone on this planet, Rhode Islanders have our favorite places to eat, from fast food to high-end restaurants. When we travel to places…

The COVID-19 pandemic has certainly created a truckload of Firsts during 2020! Its the first time I ever used the words, “Social Distancing.” First time I had to wear a mask for most of the day and night, and the first I was ever part of a Taxi Squad.
The best way to describe Taxi Squad: A taxi squad is an informal name for the group of substitute players who shuffle between the major league team and its AAA affiliate depending on short-term needs.
The next question is, “Why is it called a Taxi Squad?” A little…
