For reasons that defy logic, the most popular post on my blog my post from last summer about the parrot in the Red Sox bullpen.  I’m not one to argue.  I people love the parrot, they love the parrot.  Here’s a parrot update:

The parrot has been absent all year.  I saw 20ish games, and there was no parrot in the bullpen.  Until! Sunday’s game featured the parrot, and tonight too.  The parrot these days is perched on a baseball.  

Side note: tonight may have been the best game I’ve ever seen.  The highs, the lows, the great plays, the great pitching, the clutch hitting – just great.  I’ll be able to ignore Francona’s blunders and bask in the glow.

Back to the parrot:
