Bruins visit the Red Sox

I am not, as I have said before, a hockey fan.  But I did watch the ceremony at Fenway during which the Red Sox honored the Bruins.  This is my favorite picture of the event:  All the the Bruins throwing the first pitch to all the Sox.

Another view of the first pitch, which was -- unsurprisingly -- a little chaotic.

And this has to be my next favorite.

(Left to right) The Prince of Wales Trophy, the Conn Smythe Trophy, and the Stanley Cup -- all won by Bruins this postseason -- sat on the mound at Fenway Park.

The Stanley Cup on the mound.

I know that Boston sports fans, particularly Red Sox fans, run the risk of become the New Yankees – the team that everyone loves to hate, but we can’t seem to help glowing with pride.
