Scott Melesky is a lifelong Red Sox fan and seasoned sports journalist who has worked in and around baseball for more than three decades. Scott shares how a game between the Mets and Phillies lit the spark for his love of baseball as a kid, and how a middle-school moment of compassion for Bill Buckner turned him into a Red Sox fan for life.

We also chat about his experiences seeing the Sox play nearly every year since 1983, including being at Dodger Stadium for their 2018 World Series-clinching win. Scott also shares his contributions to several baseball books, his appreciation for the pace and nuance of the game, and why he believes keeping score is one of the most rewarding aspects of being a fan.
