Catch a baseball game at Fenway Park
A cliche it may be, but Boston Red Sox's ground is one of the true homes of baseball. For 86 years it was the scene of endless heartache as the Red Sox endured one of the most famous droughts in sporting history, until they finally broke the 'Curse Of The Bambino' in 2004 and won the World Series. The season runs from April until early October (depending on how far they get) and you can get tickets from the official site (http://boston.redsox.mlb.com/).
