Will Monday’s season-opener against the Pirates be the best in Red Sox history? Will it be the worst? Will John Mayer be involved?
At any rate, there have been plenty of great, dramatic, funny, strange season-openers over the years. Here are the best and worst.
(Note: This is Opening Day, not home-openers. That’s why games like Mo Vaughn’s 1998 walkoff grand slam game don’t apply here.)
