Red Sox Nation gears up for the game

Dozens of Red Sox fans are lining up for autographs from their favorite players.

David Anderson, 11, scored his first baseball autograph ever when Big Papi David Ortiz signed his ball during warm up today.

Sharon Miller, 54, of Clearwater, said she paid $450 a ticket just for a chance to see the Red Sox beat the Rays.

"I like the Rays, but come on, it's the Red Sox," she said.
