Right after the Marathon bombings, David Ortiz (Big Papi) was quoted at the game that night " this is our fucking city" And thus the script was written. This is awesome for our Sox to win at home. It's been 95 years since the Sox won at Fabulous Fenway.
Boston Strong.

What a series! Class act all the way around with both teams. Big Papi said this is for the families who struggle. He went on to thank his family, Boston fans and his teammates. Proud to be from Boston.

As the mother of a child who was seriously injured in the Boston Marathon bombings, I can't even begin to say how much this Red Sox team has done for the city of Boston, the survivors, and their families. Love you Red Sox! Boston Strong, indeed!!!!!

I hope your child has been able to heal from this tragic experience. Although I am sure the emotional toll takes years.
It was heartbreaking to watch all those so needlessly affected.

Thank, Karma
It's been a journey. Everyday an improvement. But we are very lucky, our child will recover in time, and will run the Boston Marathon!
Yes, the emotional part of it will take a long time. The tenacity and human spirit of these survivors has been amazing to see over the past six months

As a cards fan, just want to say the sox played baseball the way it should be played and while we tried our best it just wasn't our year :) Boston deserved the Series :)
