Over the past few weeks, the NFL network has been compiling the "Mount Rushmores" of different teams, in reaction to that, I thought it would be fun to do a similar collection for different members of Boston's sports lore.
Red Sox:
1) Pedro Martinez: 5 foot 11, 195 pounds, Martinez has long been regarded as one of the most dominant pitchers in Red Sox history. He won 3 Cy Young awards in 4 seasons was an 8 time all-star and in the end would be the driving force behind that historic 2004 Red Sox championship team.
2) Ted Wlliams: Teddy Ballgame, Baseball’s greatest hitter, regardless of what you call him, Ted Samual Williams was without a doubt the best man to ever put on a Red Sox uniform.
3) Carl Yastremski: 23 years in the league, 1 team, 3,308 games and 3,419 hits in the majors all before he was forced to retire in 1983. Yas now has his name in the hall of fame and you know what very few Red Sox deserve those recognitions as much as he does.
4) David Ortiz: Perhaps the greatest hitter in Red Sox post season history, Ortiz has now racked up more hits than any other DH in the history of baseball and that is quite a title.
