Red Sox to honor 2004 championship team, Tim Wakefield during home-opener ceremony

The 2024 Red Sox will officially open a new slate of 81 games at Fenway Park on Tuesday, April 9, against the Baltimore Orioles.

But before the first pitch is delivered in Boston’s ballpark at 2:10 p.m., the Red Sox’ home-opener festivities will pay tribute to the past.

The Red Sox announced Monday that the 20th anniversary of the 2004 World Series championship will be honored as part of the pregame ceremonies. In a team release, the Red Sox noted that all members of the 2004 Red Sox team will be invited to the ceremony, with participants set to be announced at a later date.
