Another tough finish to the end of the game for the Red Sox, but last night, the story was all about A-Rod, who played what will most likely be his final game at Fenway Park. I tried to follow him around as much as I could, and though there were some nice images that came out of it.
Say what you will about him and his career, but he makes for a great subject to shoot.
Now it’s time for us to get back on track in the hunt for the playoffs.
