In what some might call the biggest sign of the infamous Bambino curse, Boston's historic Fenway Park was swallowed by a gigantic sinkhole late Monday night.
Rescue teams worked through the night to squelch the blazing rubble remains to the beloved park that was set to host the final games in this year's World Series competition.
With the Cardinals and Red Sox traveling on Tuesday, the Major League Baseball association met this morning to determine an alternate field capable of hosting the event.
"Billy Bullens field was the unanimous choice. We needed a ball park with some real history," said Red Sox manager John Farrell.
Bullens Field, located on King Street in Westfield, has never hosted a major league event. City officials have assured fans that "we will be ready".
Tickets for upcoming World Series games at Fenway will be honored at the new location. Instructions on transferring tickets are available at redsoxnation.com and cityofwestfield.org.
