Happy Fourth of July, Red Sox Nation! Today, we celebrate Uncle Sam’s birthday by paying our taxes on time and watching our beloved Boston Red Sox take on the Washington Nationals. It’s one of the few pre-noon first pitches across all of baseball, so you still have plenty of time to eat hot dogs and watch fireworks later in the day.
P.S. Does Thomas Jefferson always win the mascot race on the fourth? I guess Washington could win, but the Declaration of Independence was kinda Jefferson’s thing. If Roosevelt or Lincoln wins, that should be considered an act of treason.
