Who was the Red Sox’ opponent the last time Fenway
Park was not sold out?

HONOR CODE: No search engines.

Previous
trivia question: The Red Sox lineup’s nickname in the 1950s was ‘Ted and the Seven Dwarfs.’

Go Sumo! The omni is a
chair + lounge + loveseat + floor pillow. It is: space age, has rip
proof nylon and little foam beads. It’s huge — 5.5 x 4.5 feet,
lightweight, versatile, colorful, stain resistant, easy to clean and
incredibly comfortable. What more could you want?

    Well, when the Sox broke the record with consecutive sell-out #456, they issued a thank-you at:
    http://boston.redsox.mlb.com/bos/fan_forum/streak_456_thanks.jsp
    to which I posted a link on my own blog:
    http://supertessie.blogspot.com/2008/09/456-and-counting.html
    I clicked on the graphic, and got the list of 2003 sellouts, of which the first was May 15, 2003. From there, I went to Retrosheet to look up the day before, May 14. Voila.

    BTW – my blog is about my daughter, not the Red Sox, and not likely to be of much interest to baseball fans, but since she was named in their honor, there’s a bit of overlap.

    The pants go on the legs, not the head. Just a FYI.
