Declared "the best clutch hitter in the history of the Boston Red Sox" by owner John Henry, David Ortiz may be best known for his performance during the 2004 postseason, where he posted a record 19 RBIs, and won three games for the Red Sox with walk-off hits on the way to a World Series championship and an ALCS MVP award. Ortiz is a three-time All-Star, holds the record for most home runs in a season by a designated hitter, and is considered by many to be the future of the Red Sox franchise.
