Like any sensible resident of our fair city, Bostonist loves going to the ballgame (although April night games can get a little chilly). Is there anything finer than seeing that first glimpse of emerald green grass as one emerges toward the field, or tracing the arc of a fly ball against the darkening sky, or haranguing the other team's relievers? We don't think so. Unfortunately, Sox tickets can be pricey and hard to come by. Of course, true fans will do what it takes to see their team, but what do you do when you just want some of that good old-fashioned, American baseball goodness without all the hassle? Bostonist goes to a minor league game. We are lucky to have two nearby Sox farm teams, the class AAA Pawtucket Red Sox (also known as the PawSox) and the class A Lowell Spinners (also known as "who? where?"). Each is about an hour away and offers distinct charms.
