The Red Sox returned to Fenway Park last night for the final series of the regular season. Before the game, David Ortiz was honored for his work in the community throughout his career. Then, in true Big Papi fashion, Ortiz hit the go ahead two run home run in the seventh inning, to give the Red Sox a win over the Toronto Blue Jays. There were some nice moments that translated well to photos.
