Mike Yastrzemski made a big impact during the Giants’ win over the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park, with a solo home run in the third inning. However, his Massachusetts homecoming was highlighted by a special moment off the field.
Before the game, Yastrzemski made a young Giants fan’s 11th birthday wish come true. The fan had a list of five things she wanted to do on her birthday, and Yastrzemski helped her check off multiple items by taking a photo with her and autographing her sign.
Yastrzemski, who was born in Andover, Massachusetts, just a short distance from Fenway Park, was able to make the young fan’s birthday one she would never forget. This was his second trip back to Boston as a member of the Giants, and he made sure it was memorable for both himself and the lucky fan.
During the series against the Red Sox, Yastrzemski had a solid performance with a home run and two RBI. However, his impact off the field in making a young fan’s birthday dreams come true is what truly stood out.
