Plenty Of Excitement Surrounding Red Sox Vs. Cubs Series At Fenway Park

The Boston Red Sox begin a three-game series against the Chicago Cubs on Friday night, and there is plenty to be excited about.

The Red Sox and the Cubs are linked in more way than one. Former Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein will make his return to Fenway Park, as will former Boston pitchers Jon Lester, John Lackey and Koji Uehara.

And the players are just as excited as the fans, according to Red Sox outfielder Jackie Bradley Jr. and Lester.

To hear from Bradley and Lester, check out the video above from “Red Sox First Pitch,” presented by Men’s Wearhouse.
