As I had done the last two times the FRS won the World Series this century, I ordered a commemorative hat. My order was entered into MLB.com’s web store on the 31st of October. As of today, one week later, the status of my order is still listed as awaiting arrival of merchandise.
I’m impatient, so I canceled it. What the heck, I’ve still got my 2013 Red Sox Nation hat and they’ll probably win it all again next year. Maybe if I think of it, next January I’ll check and see if there are any left in the outlet store for half price…
Hope springs eternal.
