Where's he been, David?

Boston and NY. He caught the Red Sox home opener (ring ceremony) and got a foul ball off Manny Ramirez. EM's been going back to the East Coast every spring break to see her Mom (Brooklyn) and sister (Boston).

Happy birthday, you big girl! With lots of wishes for your mom and dad, as well!
