...time to get down to business and start stirring up some fan interest. First priority has to go to tonight's action at Fenway Park. There are still regular seats available, as well as the usual bleacher section. To get into the bleachers for either to night's or tomorrow's game against the Detroit Tigers (tonight) and the Toronto Blue Jays (Friday), show up between 6:00 and 6:30 and you should have no porblem getting in for the 7:30 game...

...course, the greatest site is undoubtedly Lowell Park. This famed plot of land facing Mt. Auburn Street in front of Lowell House has provided thrills for Claverly bleacher bums for years. The diamond itself fits neatly into the surrounding with a spectacular setting for home runs. The right field wall is constructed of two wooden tiers, three-feet high, allowing outfielders a chance to rob hitters of four-baggers by snaring balls clearing the fence...
