We were deeply saddened by the tragic events that recently occurred at the Boston Marathon and in the days that followed. The Boston Men's Baseball League has called Boston home since 1988, with scores of players from all over the Boston area taking the field each summer for their respective team. Patriots Day in Boston is a holiday that we celebrate by rooting on all of the Boston Marathon runners who push themselves to the finish line on Boylston Street. We don't only cheer because the 26.2 mile course reveals the very best in athletic achievement and personal character, but also because it reminds us that winter is over and baseball season has arrived.

Our hearts go out to all of the victims and their families. We will honor the victims at next year's Boston Marathon by cheering louder and harder than ever before. This is our city, and we're Boston Strong!
