It's awful hard to repeat, but this weekend is what baseball is all about, ... Go Sox!
"Wade Anthony Boggs" is an American former professional baseball third baseman. He spent his 18-year baseball career primarily with the Boston Red Sox, but also played for the New York Yankees, with whom he won his only World Series ring, and Tampa Bay Rays/Tampa Bay Devil Rays, with whom he reached 3,000 hits. His hitting in the 1980s and 1990s made him a perennial contender for American League batting titles. He is 33rd on the list of career leaders for batting average among Major League Baseball players with a minimum of 1000 plate appearances. Boggs was elected to the Red Sox Hall of Fame in 2004 and the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum/Baseball Hall of Fame in Baseball Hall of Fame balloting, 2005/2005.
With 12 straight Major League Baseball All-Star Game/All-Star appearances, Boggs is third only to Brooks Robinson and George Brett (baseball)/George Brett in number of consecutive appearances as a third baseman. In 1999, he ranked number 95 on the Sporting News list of the 100 Greatest Baseball Players, and was a nominee for the Major League Baseball All-Century Team. Boggs, a 1976 graduate of Plant High School in Tampa, Florida, currently resides in the Tampa Palms, Tampa, Florida/Tampa Palms neighborhood of Tampa.

My God, ... What are the headlines going to be like on Monday if the Yankees don't make the playoffs?
I'm proud to help launch a program that reminds everyone not to drive drunk. This is a subject that I'm passionate about, particularly when it is delivered with such a positive voice.
It couldn't happen any better, ... This is a Hollywood script. It's so good for baseball. It's great for the rivalry between New York and Boston. And there might be baseball Monday, you never know.
It doesn't matter if you get 3,000 hits in 18 years or you get 3,000 hits in 22 years. You still have to reach that milestone. You still have to hit 500 home runs, and it's like a pitcher doing it. If you get 300 wins in 19 years and a guy gets 300 wins after 24 years, he's still doing something right.
I don't miss it. And that's the good part.
Sees a guy not run out a ball or loaf after a fly or not go first-to-third or second-to-home because he's just trotting, it's disturbing. I played the game one way. I gave it everything I had. It doesn't take any ability to hustle.
