Trot Nixon
He left. My favorite baseball player, Trot Nixon, left the Red Sox for the Cleveland Indians today. He's been with the team since I was two years old. I think have more Nixon jerseys than I can count.
He's been my hero ever since I can remember. The reason I liked him so much when I was young because he was a left-handed right fielder, which is what I played back then. I've met him many times over my life, and he's even given me one of his bats. I cannot believe that this is happening. This is going to be impossible to deal with.
Back in 2003 during the playoffs, he hit a walk off home run against the Oakland Athletics to keep us from being eliminated. I was there to witness it, too. Even though he is on the Indians, now, he is still my favorite player and he always will be.
Tonight I am going to the Celtics game, but I'm not going to be able to focus on it. This is tough shit, here.
