Moon Dance

Lovely moon out there tonight. Clouds are clearing, and a fair breeze blowing out to right.

Go Sox. Go Youk, the Greek God of Walks, who isn't really Greek. Go Dustin Pedroia, who is smaller than I am. Go Tim Wakefield and Mike Timlin, who deserve another ring for their yeoman's service to the Sox over the years. Go Mike Lowell. Go Josh Beckett, the main reason my fantasy baseball team finished first this year.

And finally, go Big Papi. I had the chance to take each of my kids to their first game at Fenway this year, on separate occasions. And Papi homered in each game.

And go, voters. Look for the bridge builders.

It's a marvelous night for a Moondance.
