David Ortiz’s resume speaks for itself.

During his 14 seasons in Boston, Ortiz earned 10 All-Star nods, seven Silver Slugger accolades, and played a central role in three World Series titles. His dominant play at the plate and postseason heroics eventually led to his enshrinement in Cooperstown.

But during a recent appearance on “The Bret Boone Podcast”, Ortiz admitted that he wished he accomplished even more during his lauded tenure with Boston.

“The city of Boston is something that in my life, in general, has been a game-changer,” Ortiz said. “I wish I can give them more than what I already did because that city made me a better player, a better person.
