Whoever was in charge of the karaoke arrangement during Sunday's game between the Red Sox and Padres deserves a raise.
During a mid-inning break at Petco Park during the Players Weekend contest, the folks in San Diego, which included a fair amount of Boston fans, were all set for a singalong.
When the music started, those in attendance were encouraged to sing "Sweet Caroline" by Neil Diamond. The song has a special place among those who like to visit Fenway Park and has become a bit of a staple with that crowd.
However, when it was time for everybody's favorite part of the song, the belting out of "Sweet Caroline," the person in charge of the scoreboard pulled the greatest chair pulling of all time and sent all the Red Sox fans waiting to sing the classic tune to the floor in hysterical fashion.
