Celebs Celebrate 'Boston Strong' Red Sox Win on Twitter
Last night, the Boston Red Sox won the World Series for the eighth time and first time since 2007. But the win couldn't have come at a better time, just seven months after the tragic Boston Marathon bombings. In fact, thousands of fans poured out of Fenway Park and rushed to the finish line of the marathon to pay tribute to those whose lives were taken on April 15.
