Le Fenway park accueille ses héros pour le centenaire

Pour ceux qui croient que la folie des partisans des Canadiens de Montréal est unique, un article sur le début des célébration du centenaire du Fenway park. Tout comme Montréal pour ses "glorieux", Boston carbure à l'histoire. Un attachement irrationnel pour un simple sport? Un simple jeu? Pour les amateurs de baseball et les fans des Red Sox, c'est plus que ça. Beaucoup de souvenirs, d'émotions et, parfois, d'inspiration.

 "For one more afternoon, Yaz had the Fenway fans cheering, Pedro had them celebrating and Johnny Pesky brought tears to their eyes.

 Scenes from Fenway Park's first 100 years played out on the major leagues' oldest ballfield again on Friday, when the Boston Red Sox celebrated its centennial by welcoming more than 200 former players and coaches back onto its landmark lawn. In a pregame ceremony before their game against the New York Yankees, 100 years to the day before they opened the building against that very rival, the Red Sox held a birthday party for the only ballpark in the majors ever to last this long. The team invited back every living player and coach in franchise history, and more than 200 took them up on the offer."
