Free Event: Watch the Red Sox Game at Franklin Park this Sunday

The City of Boston, the Highland Street Foundation, and the Boston Red Sox will bring the Fenway Park game experience to Franklin Park on Sunday June 22nd. This is part of the "Out of the Park" series of events.

Each “Out of the Park” event will feature a live viewing of a Red Sox away game, broadcast by the New England Sports Network (NESN) on a massive big screen with cut-ins by a live game announcer. The events will also include many of the signature elements and amenities that can be found in and around Fenway Park and Yawkey Way for a home Red Sox game - including caricaturists, balloon artists, face painters, giveaways, free popcorn, ice cream by Hood and Kayem’s famous Fenway Franks. Red Sox mascot Wally the Green Monster, Fenway Park DJ T.J. Connelly, and the Hot Tamales Brass Band will also make special appearances.

The event will be held at the Playstead by Pierpont Road. The Sox will be playing the Oakland Athletics at 4:05 p.m.
