Game two of the World Series, Fenway Park, Boston, Mass.

Presented by Live Nation and the Boston Red Sox, Taylor, his All-Star Band, and Raitt will perform at Beantown’s famed baseball stadium Aug. 6.

Taylor, who was born in Boston, is very excited about the Fenway gig. So much, in fact, that the most excellent singer/songwriter cut a short video announcing the show.

Presale tickets will be available beginning Nov. 17 at 10 a.m. General onsales start Nov. 21 at 10 a.m. All times EST. A portion of the proceeds will go to the Action for Boston Community Development. Visit JamesTaylor.com for more information.
