NEXT STOP PORTLAND: I'm not sure the statistic is all that meaningful, but I will call to your attention that tonight the Red Sox broke the MLB record for consecutive sellouts by filling Fenway Park for the 456th straight time, breaking the record previously held by the Cleveland Indians.

The record for consecutive sellouts among all of the major professional franchises is 744 games, set by the Portland Trailblazers from 1977-95.

I think it's a long shot, but the Sox might conceivably challenge that mark about 4 years from now.
