Our family began attending Salem games in 2009, the first year they were associated with the Boston Red Sox.

We've had season tickets for five years, and have loved every minute of our time at the ballpark. The players, staff, and fans are wonderful and the setting has got to be one of the most beautiful in baseball. We've enjoyed seeing "our" players move up into MLB, and getting to know new ones who come to play in Salem.

And we have the best seats in the house -- first base line, right behind the dugout. We can see what is happening in the home dugout, there's lots of action along the first base line, and we're in the shade faster!

We look forward to many more years of Salem Red Sox baseball.

In 2014, I decided to take my, then, 5 year old daughter Paisley to her first baseball game. I couldn't have been happier with her interactions with the players and Mugsy...she fell in love with the Red Sox...which became a favorite team of mine too! She insisted on going to more games and in 2015...we became season ticket holders. Over the years, we have met many ballpark friends, from fans, staff, and players. We have enjoyed autograph hunting and chats from players like Yoan Moncada, Michael Chavis, and Andrew Benintendi to her favorites, Jordan Betts and Rafael Devers! As a father, I can say I have enjoyed watching her grow up at Haley Toyota Field and can say I feel at home at the ballpark with the staff who treat us as family!
