Quote:
In a review of a Bronson Arroyo concert at Bostonist.com, we discover that the Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher is apparently longing for a return to the Boston Red Sox.
With former Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein watching the concert from the wings, Arroyo changed the lyrics of a cover of Augustana's 2007 summer ballad Boston, and, according to the Web site, made a plea for his old job in Boston:
"I think I need to get back to Boston," Arroyo sang. The reviewer wrote, "We couldn't hear the next couple of lines because some of the women of the crowd were freaking out," but picked up the rest of the verse. "I need to get out of Cincinnati. I think I need the Olde Towne to fill my heart again."
The reviewer wrote that "there was a big 'awwwwwww' from many folks in the crowd ? "
The reaction in Cincinnati probably isn't quite so kind.
