Everyone has a birthday every year. What this means is that Boston Red Sox legend David Ortiz turning 44, in hindsight, isn’t that special. This being because 44 isn’t a particularly unique number by any means. But this year was different, and the fact that it was so different encouraged me to write this article.
Everybody by now, whether you are a baseball fan or not, should know what happened back in June. I don’t need to elaborate much on the horrific and cowardice act that occurred in the Dominican Republic, but we all know that Ortiz is very lucky to be able to be celebrating his 44th birthday this year.
