Sox to reflect on Boston Marathon bombing on Patriots' Day

BOSTON -- Patriots' Day will once again be a festive occasion at Fenway Park, with the Red Sox hosting the Blue Jays Monday at 11:05 a.m. ET, and the Boston Marathon passing through Kenmore Square in the early afternoon.

But Monday will also be a time to reflect on the Boston Marathon bombing of 2013.
