Dowbrigade

In keeping with our committment to report on stories
close to home, and with some pride
that our new hometown is so enmeshed in the history of "The Curse",
the
following
story is worth a read. Who knew that the last place the Babe lived before he was suddenly sold to the New York Yankees was just a few blocks from where we now live and blog?

WATERTOWN, Mass. — Red Sox fans hoping to "reverse
the curse" as the team heads into the American League Championship
Series with New York were heartened Tuesday when one of Babe Ruth’s old
houses was torn down.

NewsCenter 5’s Jorge Quiroga reported that Babe Ruth’s old house in Watertown,
at 47 Quincy St., — which his ex-wife lived in after Ruth became a New York
Yankee — was demolished to make room for new construction.
