There's something about a Boston Red Sox playoff game at Fenway Park.
Maybe it's potentially clinching a World Series birth under the shadow of the Green Monster, the Citgo sign in Kenmore Square, or the fact that if you squint hard enough you can almost make out Carlton Fisk waving that ball inside the foul pole.
I got two extra tickets -- great seats -- to Game Six of the American League Championship Series against the Cleveland Indians next Saturday. And I believe they might have your name on them.
Here's how it works. You make a minimum contribution of $20.04 (in honor of the last time the Red Sox won the World Series, 2004) and you have as good a shot as anyone else to bring along a guest of your choice to attend the game with me.
And whatever happens, your contribution of any amount will go towards our campaign, restoring the Constitution and ending the war in Iraq.
We'll also help fly you and your guest out to Boston (and back home) and put you up in a hotel the night of the game.
If the Red Sox clinch before Game Six, well, then we'll be watching Game Two of the World Series together at Fenway. And if by some chance our beloved Sox don't make it that far, you and a friend will join me on the trail for a day in Iowa or New Hampshire.
But they will make it that far, so make a contribution right now and join me at the game next week (or maybe the World Series!)
We'll select the winner live and online at 5 P.M. Eastern, next Thursday.
So, what do you say? Wanna go see a ball game?
Batter up!

Though this is not a sports site (thank God), it has to be noted that the Boston Red Sox are a Democratic-supporting organization and after the '04 World Series, GM Theo Epstein, was thinking about not bringing the team to the White House.
[As a terrible side note - their partially-owned regional TV network, NESN, is very anti-Union and severely roughed me up in Boston this spring );]
