That philanthropic legacy has continued through the generations; picked up by Yaz and Andrews, Lynn and Evans, Tek and Wake. We are proud of the work accomplished in 2016, and the many contributions of our players to continue the legacy of giving, especially as we bid farewell to a player whose presence in the community was as powerful as his home runs.

    The Boston Red Sox Friday, May 3, 2019 * The Boston Globe Opportunities squandered as White Sox walk off Peter Abraham CHICAGO — The Red Sox had a one-run lead with one out in the bottom of the ninth inning against the Chicago White Sox on Thursday night. Their pitchers to that point had retired eight in a row. When Jose Rondon grounded to third base, it should have been another step toward the first four-game win streak of the season. “That’s a routine play,” manager Alex Cora said. But no play is routine for third baseman Rafael Devers. He overran the ball and the error led to the latest gut-punch loss for the Red Sox. Nicky DelMonico’s three-run homer off Brasier gave the White Sox a 6-4 walk-off victory. It was Delmonico’s first home run of the season. It came on a high slider from Brasier after Yonder Alonso singled to left field. “I made a bad pitch and he did what he was supposed to do with it,” Brasier said. Devers sat at his locker for several minutes after the game, still in his uniform pants. He finally trudged off to the shower after many of his teammates had already left the ballpark. Devers has nine errors, the second-most in the majors. The 22-year-old, who made a nice sliding play down the line to steal a hit away from Jose Abreu in the first inning, is wildly inconsistent. He has committed 33 errors over the last two seasons.

  • Who Are the 25 Greatest Red Sox of All Time?
    Comments Subscribe Members Starting at 99 cents Sign In BOB RYAN Who are the 25 greatest Red Sox of all time? STAN GROSSFELD/GLOBE STAFF David Ortiz joins the Babe as three­time Red Sox World Series winners. By Bob Ryan GLOBE CORRESPONDENT NOVEMBER 03, 2013 Now that David Ortiz has become the most-decorated Red Sox player of the 21st century, and now that his transcendent World Series performance has enhanced his Hall of Fame résumé, a question arises: Where does Big Papi rank in the pantheon of all-time Red Sox greats? Here’s what I’m thinking: 25. Smoky Joe Wood, RHP (1908­15) A must, if only because of 1912, when he went 34-5 with a 1.91 ERA with 10 shutouts, before winning three games in the World Series. He was 117- 56 with the Sox, before his arm went dead and he reinvented himself as a Cleveland outfielder. I’ve always thought if I could be any 20th century athlete at any point in time it would be the 22-year-old Smoky Joe Wood in 1912. 24. Mel Parnell, LHP (1947­56) 123-75 (.621) with a pair of 20-win seasons, including a dazzling 25-7, 2.77 showing in 1949. A Sox lifer and later a Sox broadcaster. Threw a no- no on July 14, 1956. 23.
