About Me
In 2008, Dropkick Murphy leader Ken Casey joined forces with film producer and baseball historian Peter Nash to officially re-establish and re-open McGreevy’s 3rd Base Saloon at 911 Boylston St. 88 years after Prohibition, “Nuf Ced†lives on in a replica of his original bar featuring a baseball museum dedicated to Boston’s history.
The collection features originals and reproductions of McGreevy’s pictures on the walls, and Nuf Ced’s own grand-niece can be found pouring drinks behind an original 19th century back bar and, yes, the new McGreevy’s even has on display the original glass portrait of the founder that greeted the likes of the Bambino and George M. Cohan.
Like a modern day McGreevy, Ken Casey even got closer Papelbon to pitch in some game bats of Sox sluggers to make into new light fixtures for the bar. Back then and now, McGreevy’s is a place where players and fans go to blow off steam after a big win. It’s a place where every picture on the wall tells a story about Boston’s baseball legacy and the characters who defined an era. Babe Ruth, mobsters, big-shot bosses and the founding fathers of Red Sox Nation made the scene back in the day. Today it’s Papelbon, punk-rockers, Boston’s movers and shakers and a legion of Red Sox Rooters, young and old, who call “McGreevy’s 3rd Base†their “ last stop before homeâ€- Nuf Ced.
