Hungry?

I’m not, thanks. Especially considering how many games I went to opening week.

Fenway Park’s food stands flunked city health inspections on more than a dozen health and safety measurements on Red Sox opening day April 8, from storing food at unsafe temperatures to failing to clean food preparation counters.

City inspectors discovered the violations, which were significant enough to pose a risk of food poisoning for patrons, even though they had found virtually the same set of problems in an examination more than a week earlier and demanded corrective action.

The concession operator’s response to the city’s findings was so slow that the city threatened at a municipal court hearing to shut down Fenway Park’s food stands if the problems were not fixed. Ultimately, 19 home games passed, and thousands of $4 hot dogs and $6 Italian sausages passed across the counters before the Red Sox concession stands finally passed a city health inspection on May 16.

Red Sox officials said the team was not informed of the violations by its food vendor, Aramark, when they occurred and did not learn of the numerous health and safety issues until it was informed by the Globe yesterday.

Lovely.

Sox gained ground on all the AL East teams on a day when David Ortiz became an American Citizen. How very proud I am for him! Bartolo Colon got his 150th career win last night a well. Congrats all around!

Don’t forget, folks, 6:05pm start time again tonight. Go Sox! Go Celts!
