Red Sox Country
Vermont sits squarely inside Red Sox Nation. Fenway Park is the closest MLB ballpark to most of the state, the team broadcasts on the regional sports network most Vermont households receive, and Red Sox fandom is multi-generational throughout New England. MLB handle in Vermont concentrates on Red Sox games during the regular season and broadens to the playoffs and World Series in the fall.
