'When I think about Boston, I think about the last game I played standing on the field at Fenway Park, you feel like the whole city of New England, and each one and every one of you is surrounding you and was showing me all your love. I love you Boston.'
Ortiz finished his speech by talking about the importance of believing in people, and how that can sometimes make all the difference.
"I always try to live my life in a way that support other, that make a positive influence in the world, and if my story can remind you of anything, let it remind you that when you believe in someone, you can change their world, you can change their future, just like so many people who believed in me," Ortiz implored."To everyone who believed in me from my family to coaches to teammates to fans, know I could not have done this without you.
Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred read Ortiz's plaque at the induction ceremony Sunday. It reads:"Powerhouse left-handed slugger who was at his best in the clutch, with legendary postseason performances that took the Red Sox from championship drought to three World Series titles in 10-year stretch. Eight times named top designated hitter, while warning 10 All-Star selections.
And there was one more special moment for Ortiz on Sunday, as his daughter Alex -- who is a music producer and vocalist currently studying at the Berklee College of Music in Boston -- sang the National Anthem on stage.
