14 years ago today ⚾

14 years ago today July 24 2004 the Dropkick Murphys debuted their remake of the old Boston Red Sox rally cry “Tessie” . The song had not been sung in 86 years and the Sox hadn’t won a World Series since the Royal Rooters stopped singing it at the games.

In a July 23 Boston Herald interview Ken Casey guaranteed Tessie would lead to a 2004 Red Sox World Series Victory. The band sang the anthem and performed Tessie on the field July 24. The Sox fell behind big and it looked like Casey got another on wrong 😂. But a Jason Varitek fight with ARod sparked a rally that lead to a walk off home run to win the game. The team caught fire and the rest is history.
