Patriot’s Day in Massachusetts is the first real sign of spring in Boston. You have the Boston Marathon and of course the Boston Red Sox playing at 11 a.m. each year.
This year’s Patriot’s Day was an emotional one after what transpired one year ago. Over 34,000 runners took the Boston Marathon course while 37,513 crammed into Fenway Park for a baseball game.
In the grand scheme of things, there were no losers in the game despite what the scoreboard said. The city showed the world its resiliency by bouncing back from one year ago.
So despite the fact the Red Sox couldn’t complete their comeback against the Baltimore Orioles in a 7-6 loss, there were plenty of other stories out there about comebacks that are much more meaningful.
