Jacoby Ellsbury pulled six muscles when he handed Ortiz the book

[@simonboccanegra3811]

Then when Ortiz hugged him, it broke two ribs.

[@JohnDoe-kd2oq]

Thanks to the Yankees for giving that glass bone pretty boy a massive contract. If memory serves me correct, the Yanks sued him to recoup some of those millions. Hahaha

As a lifelong Yankees fan, I have no qualms with admiring Ortiz both as a player and a person. Guy was one of the best pure hitters of his generation and an amazing ambassador for the sport of baseball. Easily a first-ballot Hall of Fame’er in my book. Nothing but respect for this man.

I will give the same great respect to David Ortiz that I gave to longtime Yankee Derek Jeter, both destined for the MLB Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY! David although I've always been a lifelong Orioles fan and a rival to the Red Sox, you've been an inspiration to so many people, myself included, you've shown how competitive the game can be, and you've been an outstanding player right up to the end of your career, I speak for all Orioles fans when I say thank you for all you've done for baseball, and you'll always be welcome here in Baltimore, God bless you!

[@lurkintomgaming397]

Ya Red Sox fans loved Rivera and Jeter as well, I feel like between the ceremony we had at Fenway for those two (separate of course) and the one you guys had at Yankee stadium for Ortiz, there is a lot of respect for the opposing players and fanbases in those moments. We all had a lot of fun, and it was a great ride and we both go the better of eachother and both won it all after doing so. It’s just a great story and sharing of mutual respect between the fanbases, Ortiz, Jeter and Rivera m. Congratulations to Aaron Judge on his HR achievement, what an incredible hitter

I never got to see this tribute until just now and am not too proud to say that it got this Boston Red Sox fan a bit teary-eyed because of just how wonderfully done it was. I give TOTAL props to the YESNetwork for having still having it on its KZbin channel even though it was not about a Red Sox player. This video clip gets a GREAT, BIG, HUMONGOUS "thumb's up" from me!!! Thanks EVER SO MUCH for having it, YesNetwork!!! This Red Sox fan GREATLY appreciates it!!!

If the Red Sox and Yankees can get along for as least one day like they did in the 1940s with Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams, they should do the same in the 2010s which they did. The Red Sox respected Mo and Derek Jeter and the Yankees honored David Ortiz.

My brother got me out of school, didnt tell my mother and he, a friend of his and i went early to Fenway, stood in line for hours and got bleacher seats. I still remember Yaz pop out to end hopes. Years later i still despise yet cherish Yankee players, still have their playing cards ( my younger family members beg for my collection, in fun) and i respect the rivalry.
