Scrappy outfielder Shane Victorino punched his ticket to Boston immortality with his conquests during the 2013 MLB Postseason. Victorino was a crucial contributor that year, helping the Red Sox capture the World Series in an unforgettable run just months after the Boston Marathon bombing. A go-ahead grand slam in the ALCS against the Tigers that wound up winning the pennant. A bases-clearing triple off The Green Monster to open up the scoring in a closeout World Series Game 6. And of course, countless unforgettable walk-ups to Bob Marley’s “Three Little Birds.”
Though he only spent less than three seasons with the team, Victorino will forever be a beloved figure in the eyes of the Fenway faithful.
