When a player is honored in one of baseball’s cathedrals, he takes a bow, even if there are no fans.
Brock Holt is revered in Boston, and if he didn’t know that already, there was nothing left to guess after Sunday’s 9-5 Red Sox victory over the Washington Nationals. The Red Sox paid tribute to him after the third inning on the video board at Fenway Park. The video paid tribute to Holt’s seven seasons in Boston, especially his memorable Game 3 of the 2018 NLDS against the Yankees, when he went 4-for-6 and became the first major leaguer to hit for the cycle in a postseason game.
