Book excerpt: Owen Finnegan defines ?Boston sports fan.' A Boston-area native and a semi-retired city worker in Wellesley, he has been a rabid follower of Boston's professional teams since childhood, and like many who grew up on Orr, Espo, and Cheevahs, he is a particular fan of the Bruins. But who else in Boston has collected four hundred books of sports trivia?! In this collection devoted to firsts involving the Red Sox, Patriots, Celtics, and Bruins, Finnegan offers nearly 1,000 stumpers that range from questions the above-average fan should know (Q. Which two Sox outfielders' first three Major League hits were all home runs? A. Billy Conigliaro and Mike Greenwell) to questions that will amuse and entertain, even if you don't know the answers (Q. Which Celtic was the first player to break a backboard in the NBA? A. Chuck ?The Rifleman? Connors).
