For Pete's Sake

Ken Bone gets invite to playoff game from Red Sox pitcher

Maybe it was the red sweater. Or the disposable camera. Or perhaps it was the question on energy policy.

Whatever the case, Ken Bone stole the show during Sunday night’s presidential debate, and the Internet lit up with references to Bone. And he can count Boston Red Sox pitcher Joe Kelly as a fan.

The Red Sox are preparing to play the Cleveland Indians in Game 3 of the American League Divisional Series on Monday night in Boston, and Kelly would love to invite his new friend.

That’s why Kelly tweeted that he was leaving tickets for the game for Bone.

Bone was at the debate because he’s an undecided voter. I wonder if he’s decided on a favorite baseball team.
