David Ortiz is officially a Hall of Famer.
The Red Sox legend was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York on Sunday. As part of the festivities, Ortiz gave a speech displaying his popular charisma that won the hearts of Red Sox fans.
Prior to the speech, he posed for an image with his plaque that will forever mark him as a Hall of Famer. The plaque displayed his full name, David Americo Ortiz, plus his nickname, “Big Papi,” right below an image of his face — wearing a Red Sox cap. It also showed the two MLB teams Ortiz played for (the Twins and Red Sox) as well as the years he played for both (1997-2002 for the Twins, 2003-2016 for the Red Sox).
