Evil Empire Invades the Paw Sox

Written by slanch on .

This past Sunday at McCoy Stadium, home to the Pawtucket Red Sox an epic battle between good and evil was held. No, I don't mean the game itself between the Paw Sox and Gwinnett Braves, it was the team's first ever Star Wars Day! On hand to throw the first pitch was Darth Vader himself, which doesn't to me portend a good thing, but the Paw Sox went on to win a 1-0 squeaker so what do I know...

There's plenty more in this flickr set, so check it out!
