I am a Red Sox fan and so was my grandaddy (who passed away a few years ago). When I lived in Massachusettes gramps and I would watch Martinez pitch a game. We had a blast. We would sit and eat Jelly Bellies all afternoon. I think that is the happiest time I have had with him. When the season would first start I would tell him "gramps, we are so going to win the world series this year?" He would look at me, laugh and say "Sure thing brat". We would get to play offs and were determined to see those Yanks go down and as always, they wouldn't. After our loss I would tell him "We'll we will get them next year" and he would say "sure will Brat".
He was an incredible individual...I sure miss him.
