Making his first start since May of 2019 Mark Fidrych

The really big story here is Fidrych's prior start having been almost 10 years after he died.

Heh, 1979, 2019, whatevs.

Game 118 - Blue Jays 4 at Sox 5 - 2004 - I’m pretty sure I’ve got this one right.  After Pedro Martinez and Ted Lilly struggled early (4-4 after 4) things settled down until the tenth when Orlando Cabrera doubled home Johnny Damon.  My recollection is that Cabrera’s double took a wild bounce off the top of the scoreboard giving Damon time to race around with the winner.

I just double-checked my stubs, and I was at this game. Some friends had seats elsewhere, but I sat by myself in the front row in RF Box 86 (which doesn't exist anymore) after getting the ticket during my lunch break from some guy in Back Bay via craigslist. I believe it is the 2nd-to-last of my many times seeing Pedro pitch in person.
