...Saatchi suggests the tide of interest from overseas will continue to rise. Saatchi paid about $1.5 million for one of the artist's Bloodline series.

(Japanese fans may be a little fuzzy on Beantown's traditions, though. Toshiyuki Nagao, a lifelong fan, expressed concern that "there are many academic and white-collar people in Boston, who might not appreciate baseball's earthy passion."
