There they were on the field before Monday night's Red Sox game versus Detroit....
Manny Ramirez throwing out the first pitch to David Ortiz....
Manny snuck into town to accept his plaque for being inducted into The Red Sox Hall of Fame...
He was...as he usually is....a little bit late...
The rest of this year's class...including Papi ...got in back in May...
Manny didn't make that ceremony....
Reportedly Manny said he would be in Cooperstown to see Ortiz get inducted into Baseball's Hall of Fame.....
For Manny, induction there seems unlikely due to his suspensions related to PED use...
In my eyes Manny is one of the best right handed hitters ever to play in MLB....
Aaron, Mays, DiMaggio, Foxx, Pujols , Arod and a few others.....but the link to PEDs and maybe some other irresponsible actions will leave Manny out
Manny's son plays for the Brockton Rox....they used to be a pro team....now they are a collegiate summer league team....
His son plays with Papi's son, Pedro's son, Keith Foulke's son and Gary Sheffield's son ....
Pretty cool....
If that keeps those dads close to Fenway for visits like Monday night.....that is a great thing....
