TEAM OF RIVALS

What Boston did for my final game was unbelievable. The fans were chanting for me at a place where I’ve heard them chant against me too many times to count. Everything that happened at Fenway that day was pretty outstanding. The entire Red Sox team came out to greet me before the game along with all of these great athletes from Carl Yastrzemski to Bobby Orr, which took a lot of time and planning. I didn’t know anything about it and I didn’t expect it at all. For the Red Sox organization to put forth that much effort to recognize someone who’s been an enemy, for lack of a better way to put it, was something really special.
