The Red Sox are en route to the American League Division Series thanks to a 6-2 Wild Card game win against the Yankees on Tuesday night.
Boston was busy celebrating its victory over New York by popping bottles and tweeting out appreciation for the fans who made their way out to Fenway Park on a chilly October night. And what’s a celebration without a little shade?
