of making sure that these things get done.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

You know, from our point of view is that when you represent somebody, you really want to try to achieve every objective.

And in this instance,

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

Ranger had informed us that when he was young and in Venezuela, that his first really remembrances of his childhood was washing the Red Sox and the Yankees.

And that he had told me that

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

my friends rooted for the yankees but i always rooted for the red sox so i knew that there was always an interest uh an organic interest that he had here and uh and sure enough brez and the staff called us we had a zoom and after the zoom i think it was it was clear that there was a strong um

And so it was pursued.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

It was thoroughly pursued by President's staff.

And so we arrived here today.

And when Scott was talking about when you were a kid, did you have any particular favorite players back then?

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

Yeah, just like Scott said, you know, since I was a little kid, when we would watch baseball on TV, what would be on was Red Sox-Yankees.

And, you know, everyone was going for the Yankees.

Baseball Isn’t Boring

And I asked, why is no one going for Boston?

Baseball Isn’t Boring

And that's where the interest started.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

And, yeah, just as I was made aware of the history of the team and, you know, hearing about how Babe Ruth pitched,

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Presser: Ranger Suarez On Signing With The Red Sox

played here and how you hear about Pedro Martinez and David Ortiz and all of the legends that have come through here.

Baseball Isn’t Boring

Baseball Isn’t Boring

Obviously you already alluded to it, there had been dialogue between the Red Sox and Boris, and Scott Boris, about Boris Corp clients throughout the off season.
