Weave spent much of today considering athletesa reaction to the destructive explosions at the Boston Marathon, but also for one former Red Sox pitcher, home was hit by the event in a very surreal way. The Philliesa Jonathan Papelbon played eight times in Boston, becoming associated with the Red Sox, and the city it self. His Irish jig after the clinching game of the 2007 World Series is a thing of legend, as he did actually reinvent the definition of awild anticsa on a normal basis. But Papelbon was in a dour mood today prior to the Philliesa sport with the number Cincinnati Reds. So was everyone in the Philadelphia club, as they watched protection of the Boston Marathon bombings on TV. At one time, Papelbon turned to Cliff Lee and said, aThatas where I applied to live.a Philadelphia Inquirer: aItas unhappy, man,a Papelbon said. aPatriotsa Day is just a big issue is Boston. The Sox perform at 11 oaclock. Itas all damaged. Individuals are ruined, lives are ruined. For what? Itas only sad.a Papelbon said he kept friends who still lived in his old neighborhood. Like most, he had difficulty reaching any Monday afternoon. Papelbon said he used to call home on the corner of Boylston and Fairfield Streets, near where in fact the bombs went off. aI used to call home right above where one of many bombs went off,a Papelbon said. aItas type of surreal. I donat know guy, itas ridiculous. Itas hard to even think about. aI lived right above Abe and Louieas,a he said talking about a steakhouse in the region. aItas sad, man.a Photo: Getty Images.
