My first at-bat at Fenway Park, I hit a home run.
The first game itself at Fenway was a great thrill. I grew up in Framingham, Mass., 20 miles west of the city, and to have my family and friends and pretty much everybody from the town of Framingham at that game to share that moment with me was pretty special.
