The Boston Red Sox are now on their way to the ALCS for the 4th time in 6 years.  Most of us will be rooting for the home team, but there are some Rhode Islanders who have a tough choice to make.
    
A pair of local superstars are also playing for a chance at World Series glory.  Of course, we're talking about Bishop Hendricken grad, outfielder Rocco Baldelli and Pilgrim High alum, relief pitcher Dan Wheeler, both Tampa Bay Rays.
    
Now we know there are those of you out there who've either pitched to or faced these 2 stars on the ball field, so we want to hear your 'Glory Days' stories.  For example our very own executive producer, Ryan Clifton once faced Dan Wheeler back when they were teenagers.  He went 3 for 5...how did you do???  Enter your story here, along with your info, and we may share it on the air...

Do You Think Increased Tax Revenue Means RI's Economy is Turning Around?

  • No, it's probably from some stealth tax HIKE that we don't know about.
  • Yes, things have been awful for awhile, and they're finally getting better.
