David Ortiz is now outnumbered by two former Yankees players on MLB on Fox’s main studio team, but he found a way to tilt the numbers back in the Red Sox’ favor briefly on Saturday.
In the closing moments of Derek Jeter’s first official broadcast as part of MLB on Fox’s studio team, Ortiz gifted the Yankees icon with a Red Sox jersey. It wasn’t Ortiz’s jersey or a plain jersey. Rather, it was a custom-made one, with Jeter’s No. 2 and his name printed on the back.
“It’s so nice, so touching,” Jeter said at first when he received the box containing his gift.
