The late Johnny Pesky gave his life to his beloved Boston Red Sox , but,
sadly, it appears only four current players made time to attend
the Fenway icon’s funeral.
Word from Yawkey Way is that the Sox front office hired buses to bring
players, office and staff to the funeral from the ballpark to the church. The
suits, we hear, were surprised and disappointed when the vast majority of the
40 players on the roster didn’t bother to show up for the services.
“We ordered the buses for the front office to go, knowing that any players
could join us or drive separately from their homes,” Sox spokesman Charles
Steinberg told the Track. “Between the ownership, front office, current
players and staff, and former players, we were well represented by the people
who knew Johnny best.”
The only players the Herald observed at the funeral at St. John The
Evangelist Church in Swampscott were designated hitter David Ortiz,
pitchers Clay Buchholz and Vincente Padilla and catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia.
美國時間週一舉行了老前輩Pesky的喪禮，那天紅襪隊沒有比賽
但球團還是有包下巴士準備接送工作人員和球員
結果出席的現役球員只有老爹、巴扣子、帕迪亞和小鹽共4人
By contrast, that same night, nearly the entire team turned out for pitcher
Josh Beckett’s annual Beckett Bowl and country music show at Lucky
Strike Lanes and the House of Blues.
其他人不是去參加北極舉辦的慈善保齡球賽，不然就是去聽音樂會
“The front office was not happy,” said Someone Who Knows.
據傳FO對此事不太高興
Pesky, a Fenway fixture for 60 years, was described as the “heart, soul and
spirit of the organization” by Sox prez Larry Lucchino.
Lucchino, owner John Henry and his wife, Linda, Sox CEO Sam Kennedy, GM Ben
Cherington and many more team execs and staff were on hand to bid Pesky a
final farewell. Also in the pews were former players like Nomar Garciaparra,
who made the trip from California for the funeral and was visibly upset
during the ceremony; Jim Rice, Bill Lee, Jerry Moses and Mike Andrews.
老闆、CEO和ㄐㄇ都出席，另外還有Nomar、Jim Rice、李比爾等前紅襪球員也都現身致意

"I think it's very insulting to the family, the Pesky family, for people to
be thinking an organization that loved him so much did anything other than
the right thing. That's my answer to that," Valentine said.
8BV當天也有出席，他認為不出席喪禮這件事是種汙辱
