Everyone that has ever met David Ortiz has a story to tell about the iconic slugger for the Boston Red Sox.
Sports Illustrated invited Ortiz to be a guest-editor for their latest issue, which features him on the cover and includes a candid interview with SI senior editor Tom Verducci. While “The Big Interview” was a featured story, Ortiz’s presence could be felt throughout the issue.
This edition of SI, which hits newsstands on Thursday, September 29, also includes a profile on Boston Celtics star Al Horford, who dispelled the myth that the franchise is incapable of luring premium free agents by signing a four-year, $113 million deal this summer.
