February’s schedule is a beautiful liar. Games start at 1:05 PM from Fort Myers. You watch players in baggy shorts. You think, "This is the year!" Then April happens.

The Spring Training games are never broadcast in full unless you own a tuning fork. You get a grainy feed from a local Florida station. The cameraman focuses on a seagull for three seconds.
Yet you watch. Because it’s Red Sox baseball. You’re a glutton for punishment and hope.
The Notorious "July 4th" Game
Every year, the Red Sox play on Independence Day. It’s a tradition. The game usually ends around 10 PM, and then Fenway shoots fireworks. Your neighbors hate you because you’re screaming "PEDROIA!" at 11 PM.
The schedule always puts this game at 7:10 PM sharp. Why? To maximize the chaos. You’ll be full of hot dogs and beer by the seventh inning. You’ll cry during "God Bless America."
Also, the Patriots’ Day game at 11:00 AM. That’s a morning matinee. You’re at work, refreshing your phone. Your boss catches you. You say "it’s a local holiday," but you live in Ohio.
