four years pass...

I started watching a DVD of Game 6 a friend sent to me a while back. (If you're my age, Game 6 does not mean 2011 or 1986--it means 1975.) Question I would never have gotten right had someone posed it to me: Who led off for the Red Sox?

don't know, but I'm your age, and it means 1986 to me.

You're a Mets fan, so I'd expect that. Don't know where the majority of non-hometown fans our age would come down on that question. (I was rooting against the Red Sox in '75, for them in '86.)
