A photograph signed by Boston Red Sox World Series Champion manager Alex Cora.

Cora played in 14 seasons in Major League Baseball with the Red Sox, Los Angeles Dodgers, Cleveland Indians, New York Mets, Texas Rangers, and Washington Nationals, and was a member of Boston's 2007 World Series Championship team. 

After retiring as a player, Cora served as the bench coach for the Houston Astros when they won their first World Series title in 2017. Cora was named Boston's manager the following season, where he won a franchise-best 108 games and led the team to victory in the 2018 World Series. He is the fifth MLB manager to win the World Series in his first season and the first Puerto Rican manager of a World Series-winning team.
