Principal Owner John W. Henry and Chairman Tom Werner are beginning their 19th season as stewards of the Red Sox franchise, their tenure as club owners now the second longest in franchise history. By any measure, the club has enjoyed unparalleled success in that time. The franchise has won four World Series titles, the first of which (2004) ended a championship drought of 86 years, while the most recent (2018) capped off an historic 119-win season, with a club-record 108 of those victories coming in the regular season. No other franchise in the first two decades of this century has won as many as four World Series titles. The Henry/Werner tandem, in conjunction with their partners, also has succeeded in saving and restoring Fenway Park by blending modern amenities with the history and tradition that has made the ballpark one of the world’s crown jewel sports venues. In each of the last 16 seasons, Red Sox annual attendance has exceeded 2.8 million fans. Fulfilling ownership’s pledge to the greater community, the Red Sox Foundation is celebrating its 19th year of existence, donating to more than 1,900 organizations, including its own self-operated programs. It is the largest team charity in Major League Baseball, and one of the largest in professional sports.The “new day” that Henry proclaimed when he, Werner, Larry Lucchino and their partners purchased the Red Sox on De-cember 20, 2001—ending the 69-year stewardship of Tom and Jean Yawkey and their trustees—did indeed come to pass. As the Henry/Werner partnership completes a second decade of ownership, its commitment to remaining at the top of the baseball firmament for years to come remains as strong as ever.“I don’t think of it as a business,” Henry said. “This is not the business I would choose to go into if you [only] call it a business. But it’s a competitive challenge. And we’re doing everything we can every year to maximize our resources. Other than the Yankees, we’re probably second among the 30 teams in spending in the last decade, maybe over the last two decades. For me, it’s about competitive advantage. You need to manage your resources properly.”As the leaders of the Red Sox confront the challenges of a new season, they continue to be guided by the fundamental principles that have served the franchise so well for almost two decades, with a commitment to the following:

Commitment No. 1: Playing October Baseball Each Season, With the Ultimate Goal of Winning World Series ChampionshipsIn the first 18 seasons under current ownership, the Red Sox have compiled a .557 winning percentage, which ranks second overall in Major League Baseball. In that time, the Red Sox have reached postseason play 10 times and won four World Series titles, the most championships of any Major League team in the 21st century. They also have enjoyed three separate three-year streaks of qualifying for the playoffs (2003-05, 2007-09, 2016-18) after never before ad-vancing to the postseason in three straight seasons. Each of the last three playoff appearances has been the result of winning the American League East Division title, marking the longest streak of first-place finishes in franchise history.The bands of consistent success paved the way for four majestic World Series runs. The first, in 2004, came in the wake of a crushing Game 7 defeat in the 2003 American League Championship Series against the New York Yankees, one that was eclipsed in drama by the unprecedented comeback staged by the Red Sox against the Yankees in the 2004 ALCS. When the last out was recorded in Yankee Stadium on October 20, 2004, the Red Sox became the first team in baseball history to win a seven-game postseason series after losing the first three games. The unbridled momentum of the ALCS carried through to St. Louis, where the Sox completed a four-game sweep, helping to salve Game 7 losses to the Cardinals in both the 1946 and 1967 World Series.In 2007, the Red Sox gained sole possession of first place in the AL East on April 18 and never relinquished the division’s top spot. The club continued its magical run with another stirring comeback in the ALCS, rallying from a 3-games-to-1 deficit to defeat the Cleveland Indians. The Sox then swept the Colorado Rockies for their second World Series title in four years.In 2013, with a new manager in John Farrell and the signings of seven free agents in the offseason, a team that came to be known as a band of bearded brothers provided a needed emotional lift to a city devastated by the Boston Marathon bombing. To the rallying cry of “Boston Strong,” the Red Sox defeated the Detroit Tigers in a thrilling, six-game ALCS. After securing their 13th AL pennant, the Red Sox disposed of the Cardinals in the World Series, also in six games, winning the decisive game at Fenway Park for the first time in 95 years. In 2018, with rookie Manager Alex Cora at the helm, the Red Sox got off to starts of 9-1 and 17-2, the best 19-game stretch to begin a season in franchise history. They took over sole possession of first place in the AL East on July 2 and held it for the remainder of the season, using a four-game sweep over the Yankees in early August to separate themselves from the pack. Boston finished 8.0 games ahead of New York in the division standings, marking the club’s largest margin of victory ever. The Sox’ 108 regular season wins bested a franchise record that had been set 106 years prior by the 1912 club that finished 105-47.

The 2018 Red Sox carried their historic regular season into the playoffs, where they went a combined 7-2 against the 100-win Yankees and the 103-win Houston Astros, the defending World Series champions. In Game 3 of the ALDS at Yankee Stadium, Brock Holt became the first major leaguer ever to hit for the cycle in a Postseason game, while Jackie Bradley Jr.’s clutch hitting in Houston earned him ALCS Most Valuable Player honors. After win-ning their 14th AL pennant, the Red Sox went on to win the World Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers in five games, notably overcoming a 4-0 deficit in Game 4 to earn the franchise’s largest comeback victory in World Se-ries history. Boston’s 119 total wins were the third-most in Major League history, and the second-most ever by a World Series championship team.After claiming three consecutive first-place finishes for the first time in franchise history (2016, ‘17, ‘18), the Red Sox missed the playoffs in 2019 with an 84-78 record. Following the 2019 season, the club hired its first chief baseball officer, Chaim Bloom, to execute ownership’s mandate of creating a framework that will ensure sustained success well into the future. With an offense led by Xander Bogaerts, Rafael Devers, and J.D. Martinez—who each hit at least .300 with more than 30 home runs and 100 RBI in 2019—and a pitching staff anchored by Chris Sale, Eduardo Rodriguez, and Nathan Eovaldi, the Red Sox’ quest for their fifth World Series title of the century begins with a core of talented players in 2020.

Commitment No. 2: Preserving, Protecting and Enhancing Historic Fenway Park While Offering New and Unique Forms of EntertainmentFenway Park was on life support when the team was up for sale in 2001. Only the Henry-Werner-Lucchino group sought to save the ballpark. Passion, ingenuity, and commitment fueled financial, intellectual, and physical improvements to the ballpark each year. The most significant renovations took place in the first 10 years (through the 2010-11 offseason), funded by the club’s own investment of over $285 million. With the mantra “Do No Harm,” the ownership group set the course on an ambitious transformation to add more seats, information, and amenities at Fenway Park. From seam-lessly putting seats above the hallowed Green Monster to utilizing every available square inch in the ballpark, they shortened lines, enhanced information access, and improved facilities for players and staff. They helped preserve and protect the neighborhoods around the park, from Kenmore Square through the Fenway to the Longwood med-ical area (home of world-renowned hospitals).After their third season of improvements, Henry, Werner, and Lucchino committed on March 23, 2005 to remain long-term at Fenway Park. The news triggered gratitude, honors, and investment that rejuvenated the Fenway neighbor-hood. Fans responded by packing the ballpark in unprecedented numbers, resulting in a record sellout streak of 794 games (820 including the postseason), beginning on May 15, 2003 and ending with a sellout on Opening Day, 2013.With additional seats and standing room at Fenway Park, the club reached 2.7 million in attendance for the first time in 2003 – the first of seven consecutive seasons setting an attendance record – and exceeded 3 million fans in five straight years from 2008-12.Recognizing that Fenway Park could once again serve as a gathering place for the community beyond 81-plus base-ball games each year, the ballpark has opened its doors to a wide variety of entertainment experiences year-round. This unique showcase of events began with Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, the first band invited to play at Fenway Park in 2003, making an encore appearance in 2012. That concert, the first in 30 years at Fenway Park, paved the way for a sweeping array of entertainment and sporting events. On New Year’s Day 2010, Fenway Park’s playing surface served as foundation for a hockey rink, the Boston Bruins taking the ice for the National Hockey League’s Winter Classic against the Philadelphia Flyers. It was a success, artistically and on the scoreboard, the Bruins winning, 2-1, in overtime. And in the winter of 2011-12, there would be more skating on the Fens, as several college and high school teams played in “Frozen Fenway” and time was set aside for open public skating. “Frozen Fenway” returned two years later, this time with the addition of a 75-foot “Monster Sled,” the left-field wall serving as dramatic backdrop.Fenway Park took on an international flavor in 2010, hosting its first soccer match in more than 40 years when Celt-ic FC of the Scottish Premier League took on Sporting Portugal. In 2012, a preseason friendly between two iconic franchises, Liverpool FC and A.S. Roma was held at the ballpark, with the Italian side winning, 2-1. Those two clubs met in a rematch in 2014, and Roma again came out on top, 1-nil.

The sporting menu was expanded again in 2015, in what became the Winter Season at Fenway Park. To great pop-ular acclaim, football returned to the 105-year-old ballpark for the first time since 1968 when the Boston Patriots of the old American Football League played their home games. The baseball diamond underwent a dramatic trans-formation into a gridiron as Notre Dame took the field as the home team in the Shamrock Series against Boston College on November 21. The Fighting Irish edged the Eagles, 19-16. Days later, Fenway Park revived a tradition that had ended 80 years earlier of hosting Thanksgiving high school football. St. John’s Prep played Xaverian and B.C. High played Catholic Memorial on Thanksgiving Eve, while Wellesley played Needham and Boston Latin met Boston English on Thanksgiving Day.The football games were followed the next weekend by hurling, Galway meeting Dublin in a friendly, which was accompanied by an Irish Festival.In February, 2016, another winter spectacle made its Fenway debut: “Big Air at Fenway,” a snowboarding and free-skiing U.S. Grand Prix tour event. It featured a 140-foot-high snow ramp, taller than the light towers at the ballpark and over three times taller than the fabled Green Monster. After a summer in which a record 11 concerts were held, including a first-ever appearance by Pearl Jam, ice hockey returned in January, 2017, with Frozen Fenway held for the fourth time.In 2017, Lady Gaga made history when she became the first fe-male artist to headline at Fenway Park, performing two concerts. Her two shows were part of eight nights of concert performances that year, including encore appearances by James Taylor, Bon-nie Raitt and Billy Joel. Football also returned in the form of the Gridiron Series, comprised of back-to-back weekends of college football. Ivy League rivals Brown and Dartmouth kicked off the series, the Big Green prevailing 33-10 in the first meeting in 94 years between the schools here, followed the next night by UMa-ss and Maine, the home-state Minutemen coming out on top in a high-scoring, 44-31 affair. The following weekend, Boston College romped over UConn, 39-16, the colleges then giving way to three high school games played headed into Thanksgiving, the first between B.C. High and Catholic Memorial, followed by a dou-ble-header featuring Masconomet and Everett in the first game, followed by Hingham and Scituate. From June to September of 2018, the Fenway Park Summer Con-cert Series was in full swing as 10 shows featuring 10 different artists took center stage. In November, Fenway Park was the site of Harvard and Yale’s 135th rendition of “The Game,” the most prominent athletic contest between the Ivy institutions, in which the Crimson beat the Bulldogs, 45-27. A few days later, the popular Irish sport of hurling returned for the third time in four years. Two days before Thanksgiving, a series of high school football games took center stage as eight local high schools competed in a pair of double-headers over a two-day period at the ballpark. The offseason entertainment concluded in February 2019 when a collection of the world’s fastest skaters raced at speeds of up to 50 miles-per-hour down a 1,200-foot ice track for the two-day Red Bull Crashed Ice event.The 2019-20 off-season was devoted to another ambitious project—the construction of the MGM Music Hall at Fenway, a new 5,000-seat performing arts center which will sit beyond the right-field bleachers of Fenway Park. In addition to hosting a wide variety of live events, the mixed-use venue will offer the opportunity to partner with local schools, colleges, and other neighborhood organizations to create an epicenter for the performing arts community in Boston.

Commitment No. 3: Taking the Fenway Park Experience to the Highest Levels of Service, Warmth, and Hospitality for the Purpose of Creating Lasting Memories for All Who VisitIt is not enough for the Red Sox to have a winning team playing in a historic ballpark; every employee of the Red Sox is challenged to create an experience that matches, or exceeds, the expectations of every fan who walks through the gates of Fenway Park. With instruction that we are in the “yes business,” the motto heard most around the halls of the front office is, “It can be done.” To help bring that motto to life, on September 5, 2002, the club created the Fenway Ambassadors, a good-will troupe whose mandate is to delight, inform, and care for fans young and old. From the simple task of giving direc-tions, to surprising a child with a game ball who missed catching their own, the Fenway Ambassadors work to fulfill the club’s mission to apply a personal touch and create memorable experiences for all who visit.

NOTABLE FENWAY PARK IMPROVEMENTS

2003: The debut of Green Monster seats above the left-field wall and official open-ing of Yawkey Way after a one-month trial the previous September.

2004: The building of the Budweiser Roof Deck (now the Sam Deck).

2005: Improvements to the clubhouse and the creation of Game On!

2009-11: Complete repair of the lower seating bowl.

2013: The addition of the Champions Club and the introduction of “Fenway Farms,” a rooftop garden.

2014: The opening of Yawkey Station on the MBTA Commuter Rail.

2016-17: The addition of two rows of dug-out seats; the installation of a removable field wall system in front of the bullpens; and the addition of a virtual reality batting cage experience in the Kids Concourse.

2018: The addition of a Dugout Suite adjacent to the home dugout, giving fans a unique, field-level view of the game.

Since 2002, the club has put a special emphasis on making all fans feel welcome at the ballpark, and new improve-ments and amenities have sought to provide the comforts that make their visit enjoyable, including enhanced WiFi and cellular networks, a new space created just for season ticket holders in the Royal Rooters Club, more varied concession options that appeal to the most discerning palates, and private spaces for mothers to nurse their infants. In addition to the improved creature comforts, the club has provided fans with more free opportunities to visit Fenway Park outside of a game with the introduction of programs such as a “Father’s Day Catch,” a Mother’s Day “Walk in the Park,” days when “Kids Run the Bases,” “Open Houses” to savor the ballpark, and when “Grand-parents Walk the Bases.” Families can trick or treat on Halloween, and celebrate Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, the holiday season, and Valentine’s Day with a variety of events.And it wouldn’t be “America’s Most Beloved Ballpark” without the poignant ceremonies that celebrate the import-ant and meaningful connection between and the City of Boston and Fenway Park. In a grand procession to celebrate the ballpark’s 100th anniver-sary on April 20, 2012, the exact date of the first game at Fenway Park, more than 200 former Red Sox returned to their field, wear-ing the jerseys of their youth, one by one, to the strains of “Field of Dreams,” “The Natural,” and John Williams’ “Jurassic Park.” Maestro Williams was on hand in person to conduct the Boston Pops in the debut of “Fanfare for Fenway,” his gift to the club and to the park. A Guinness World Record (32,904) toasted the park. And as her great-grandfather John F. Fitzgerald, the Mayor of Boston, had done 100 years before on the same date in the same place, Caroline Kennedy threw the Ceremonial First Pitch, together with Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino and Thomas Fitz-gerald, grandson of “Honey Fitz.” The game would be the last ever attended together by Johnny Pesky and Bobby Doerr, who sat in the Legends Suite, watching the Boys of Summer that they were 70 years before.In 2013, the Red Sox played a meaningful role after the Boston Marathon tragedy of April 15. At the team’s next home game, Saturday, April 20, Boston’s largest community convocation ex-perienced a palpable sense of unity and resolve. The ceremony’s final words came from an impassioned David Ortiz, whose spon-taneous oratory will not be forgotten, though it may not necessar-ily be repeated word for word. Throughout the season, the Red Sox welcomed heroes and wounded, families and friends, and attempted to provide com-munal comfort. It was an extraordinary demonstration of how a ballclub can interlock with the emotions of a strong, resilient community. Together, that passion took everyone back to the fin-ish line of the Marathon on November 2, when Jonny Gomes and Jarrod Saltalamacchia placed the freshly won World Series Trophy on the site. They countered tragedy with triumph. In 2014, April 20 was a special day for the third straight year. On the eve of Marathon Monday, ESPN televised Fenway’s one-year tribute to those who had been affected. Fans in the park, in the nation, and around the world marveled at the demonstration of strength that had made “Boston Strong” part of the national vocabulary.Opening Day 2015 was one of the club’s most remarkable. Fans anticipated and enjoyed a salute to the New England Patriots, who had just won their fourth Super Bowl. But they did not expect the emotional moment when Jane Richard led her church’s children’s choir in the National Anthem, two years after losing her leg – and her brother Martin – in the Marathon tragedy.Neither did they anticipate the final moment of the ceremonies, traditionally when someone says “Play Ball!” On this day, the club gave that honor to Pete Frates, the Boston College baseball star whose battle with ALS led him to help create the phenomenal “Ice-Bucket Challenge.” What’s more, then-General Manager Ben Cherington came out on the field and signed Frates to an authentic Red Sox baseball contract. During the summer, the club presented a two-day tribute to new Hall of Famer Pedro Martinez. One day in English, one day in Spanish, both touching tributes to the extraordinary pitcher and extraordinary man.The 2016 season was marked by two extraordinary events. In pregame ceremonies May 26th, Hall of Famer Wade Boggs became the ninth Red Sox player to have his number retired, a red No. 26 joining the others on the façade of the right-field grandstand. The final weekend of the 2016 season was devoted to a three-day celebration of the extraordinary career of Red Sox slugger David Ortiz, who received a $1 million gift from the Red Sox Foundation to his own foundation dedicated to critical pediatric care, and also was saluted by the city and state with the naming of a bridge and a street in his name.

“A Competitive Challenge,” Continued

Two championship reunions marked the 2017 season—the 1967 team gathered to commemorate the “Impossible Dream” American League pennant it captured 50 years before, and the 2007 World Series champions reconvened 10 years after giving the Sox their second World Series title in four years. And, not waiting for his inevitable induction into baseball’s Hall of Fame, the Red Sox staged a memorable ceremony to retire the No. 34 worn by the beloved Big Papi, David Ortiz.In 2018, the club inducted the newest members of the Red Sox Hall of Fame, Kevin Youkilis, Derek Lowe, Mike Lowell, and the late John Frank “Buck” Freeman. Al-phonso “Al” Green, who has worked for the club for more than 40 years, was cho-sen as the non-uniformed inductee. The club also introduced the first-ever Special Achievement inductee recognizing the accomplishments of Arthur D’Angelo, owner of Twins Enterprises, The Souvenir Store on Jersey Street, and founder of ‘47 Brand. In May, the Red Sox hosted the first alumni game in nearly 25 years. The three- inning game took place on May 27 before the Red Sox-Braves game and featured Dwight Evans and Luis Tiant as the managers of the two teams. Twenty-five alums participated in the game, including Wade Boggs, Oil Can Boyd, Orlando Cabrera, Jonny Gomes, Bill Lee, Derek Lowe, Mike Lowell, and Pedro Martinez. In 2019, the Red Sox on July 18 hosted a celebration of the 150th anniversary of Boston Children’s Hospital, the world’s largest pediatric research enterprise and the primary pediatric teaching hospital for Havard Medical School.And in their commitment to making Fenway Park as accessible to as many fans as possible, the Red Sox also introduced their Service Dog of the Game program, hon-oring a service dog prior to every Thursday night home game throughout the season.From the first Father’s Day Catch in 2002, through unifying convocations, to the celebration of careers, the Red Sox have turned Fenway Park into a place of warm, lasting memories – a place where dreams come true.

Commitment No. 4: Impacting the Lives of New Englanders through Our Community and Charitable EndeavorsThe Red Sox, recognizing the place of prominence they have been given in the lives of so many New Englanders, have embraced their mission to positively impact the community that holds them so dear. Immediately after completing the purchase of the club on February 27, 2002, the owners established the Red Sox Foundation, and committed to the Massachusetts Attorney General that they would infuse the foundation with at least $20 million over the next 10 years.As it celebrates its 19th year, the Red Sox Foundation, focusing on its core targets of children, families, veterans and communities in need, has not only met that expectation but exceeded it, and in 2018 welcomed a new executive director, Bekah Salwasser. In 2010, it received Major League Baseball’s first-ever Commissioner’s Award for Philan-thropic Excellence for its Red Sox Scholars program, which provides college scholarships and care for academically- talented, financially-challenged middle school students. The Red Sox Foundation won the Commissioner’s Award a second time in 2019 for its Home Base program, which provides treatment for post-traumatic stress and traumatic brain injuries to veterans and their families.It also received the 2009 Steve Patterson Award for Excellence in Sports Philanthropy from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and The Sports Philanthropy Project.The legendary relationship between the Red Sox and the Jimmy Fund marked its 66th year of partnership in 2019. Through the years, the club’s support has intensified with a variety of initiatives. In 2002, the Red Sox established the Jimmy Fund Radio-Telethon on WEEI and NESN. The annual fundraiser has generated more than $57 million for research, treatment, and care at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, including $3.6 million in 2019. The foundation also became a title sponsor of the Pan-Mass Challenge, the across-the-Commonwealth bike ride that has raised more than $717 million, including a record $63 million in 2019. Patients visit the Red Sox at Spring Training, on the road, and at Fenway, thanks to the generosity of retired radio-TV personality John Dennis; philanthropists such as Art Kelly; and Mike Gordon, President of Fenway Sports Group. The relationship started anecdotally in 1947, when Ted Williams would visit patients on his way to the park. The Red Sox adopted the Jimmy Fund as their official charity in 1953, to continue the tradition established by the Boston Braves, who moved to Milwaukee. The 2013 season featured a year-long tribute that included the creation of the Jimmy Fund Chorus. In 2014, a Jimmy Fund Gallery was dedicated, and the relationship was proclaimed in signage on the outside of the building on Brookline Avenue.For the fifth straight season in 2019, Brock Holt served as a Jimmy Fund captain, visiting the clinic and lending his support to the cause. The entire team visited the Telethon set in August to take a photo with patients and show their support.

n“A Competitive Challenge,” Continued

A signature effort made by the Red Sox is the Home Base Program, initiated by Red Sox Chairman Tom Werner and the Red Sox Foundation after visits to the Walter Reed Army Medical Center. In partnership with Massachusetts General Hospital, the program has provided treatment for post-traumatic stress and traumatic brain injuries to more than 24,000 New England veterans and their families. The foundation has donated over $27 million to the program, raising most of that total through its annual Run to Home Base.The club’s enhanced community relations outreach features appearances that foster player-fan interaction. Red Sox players on the 2019 team made 669 appearances arranged by the club, and former players made 351 more. These gestures—1,020 in-person interactions—are in addition to many of the charitable efforts in which players engage independently. In addition to the work of the Red Sox Foundation, the club has helped other charities raise tens of millions over the past 18 years by donating nearly 65,000 autographed items, providing free use of the ballpark, and over 250,000 complimentary tickets for games, concerts, and special events. The Red Sox Wives also consistently render services to the community via events that have generated record amounts of food for the hungry, funds to fight diseases, and awareness to help prevent the abuse of women.The Sox continue to sponsor Ticket for Troops donations while also offering discounted tickets for active-duty, retired, and veteran service members. The Red Sox Foundation for the fifth year sponsored the IMPACT Awards Pro-gram, which provides Red Sox fans in the five New England states outside of Massachusetts with the opportunity to vote for their favorite local non-profits to decide which organizations will be awarded grants. More than $375,000 in grants have been awarded to those non-profits.

Commitment No. 5: Developing and Nurturing the Next Generation of Red Sox FansPerhaps more than any other sport, “America’s Pastime” is a generational game. The future of the Red Sox fran-chise is tied to its ability to make the club and the game of baseball exciting for the kids of today and the parents of tomorrow. To that end, Red Sox ownership made growing the next generation of fans a central mission for the entire organization.In 2016, the Red Sox continued to build out “Calling All Kids,” a series of programs to develop young fans with three primary goals: provide greater access to Red Sox games at Fenway Park; enhance the entertainment and customer experience for kids at the ballpark; and celebrate and strengthen the game of baseball in the community. To improve access for young fans, the Red Sox introduced two new ticket programs: a $9 ticket for high school and college students beginning in 2014, and for those 14 and younger, a free ticket to a game as part of the free Kid Na-tion membership. In 2018, there were more than 19,000 kids enrolled in the program across each of the 50 states. Perhaps the most visible symbol of the club’s commitment to youth was the creation in 2014 of “Gate K (for Kids),” a children-friendly entrance located adjacent to Gate B leading into the new Kids Concourse. In addition to the gate, the right field area of the Big Concourse was revamped with games, entertainment, kids’ concessions, and amenities, and “Wally’s Clubhouse” was formed to serve as an outlet for young fans and families who need a break from the game. To help assist the parents and youngsters in this area, a “Kids Crew” was established, a group of game day employees dedicated to serving the needs of families in the Kids Concourse and Wally’s Clubhouse. Proving to be a huge hit with our young fans was Tessie, Wally the Green Monster’s sister, who was introduced in January, 2016. Tessie is present for all games at Fenway Park to entertain kids and is a permanent member of the Red Sox family. To engage more children to play the game, the Red Sox have long been active in Major League Baseball’s RBI Pro-gram. In 2002, the ownership group established an innovative program – the Boston Area Church League – with Mayor Thomas M. Menino, sponsors, civic leaders, and longtime civil rights activist Frank Jordan. Children play Saturday doubleheaders with pastors as coaches, police as umpires, and assistant district attorneys as volunteers. All enjoy a game at Fenway Park in September. Over the past 15 years, the RBI program (Reviving Baseball in Inner Cities) has grown to serve over 2,000 youth annually.In 2017, Mayor Walsh and the Red Sox Foundation unveiled one of four indoor batting cages that were installed at Boston Centers for Youth & Families (BCYF) community centers throughout the City of Boston. The batting cage installations were made possible by a grant from Major League Baseball (MLB) and the Major League Baseball Players Association’s (MLBPA) Youth Development Foundation, an organization set up in 2015 by the league and Players Association to improve the caliber, effectiveness, and availability of amateur baseball and softball programs across the United States and Canada.The commitment to Little League baseball continued in 2019 when the Red Sox Foundation sponsored Little League teams in Massachusetts and Rhode Island, and sponsored State Tournaments in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Maine as well as leadership and instructional skills training for coaches and administrators. The club teamed up with Mayor Walsh and the Highland Street Foundation for the fifth straight year of “Out of the Park,” a free, family-oriented event that brings the Fenway Park experience out to the community. For the Red Sox, the inaugural “Calling All Kids” campaign was just the beginning. After all, when it comes to kids, you can never rest.

Red Sox in the Community

The Personal TouchTouching Lives, Face to FaceThe team’s commitment to the community remained as strong as ever in 2019 – a joint effort of the team’s community relations department and the Red Sox Foundation.Pitcher Nathan Eovaldi and first baseman Mitch Moreland, to cite one example, teamed up with MLB and Teammates for Kids to help fight childhood hunger through the Home Plate Project. The goal of the initiative was to help fight childhood hunger, combat food insecurity and raise awareness about the issue. As part of the initiative, Moreland visited the Greater Boston Food Bank. Moreland and his wife, Susannah, continued to support Boston Children’s Hospital by making visits, as well as holding their second annual “Christmas in July” toy drive. Mitch was honored by Children’s Hospital in November with its Champions Award. Five Make-A-Wish children battling cancer and other life-threatening illnesses experienced far-fetched dreams come true in 2019 as they stepped on the field, sat in the dugout, and met the players they had only admired from afar. Tim Wakefield, the Red Sox Foundation Honorary Chairman inducted into the club’s Hall of Fame in 2016, participated in numerous foundation activities throughout the year, including his sixth annual golf tournament to benefit the Red Sox Foundation. For the fifth year, the Red Sox Foundation’s IMPACT Awards Program provided Red Sox fans in the five New England states outside of Massachusetts with the opportunity to vote for their favorite local non-profits to decide which organizations will be awarded grants. In that five-year span, the Foundation has donated $375,000 to those designated charities.In spring training in Fort Myers, Fl., players participated in the Children’s Hospital golf tournament, signed autographs at the Open House at JetBlue Park, attended the Lee County Boys & Girls Club Dinner, and the Diamond Dinner bene-fitting the Golisano Children’s Hospital of Southwest Florida where they also visited with patients. Players also spent time with children from the Jimmy Fund and participated in service days, which included spending time with students at Treeline Elementary School as well as patients from the Home Base program in Southwest Florida. Pitchers Chris Sale and Nate Eovaldi visited the Golisano Children’s Hospital. The team held its fifth “Girls of Summer” event where women learned fundamentals of the game from Red Sox coaches, got their photos taken with Red Sox players, and were addressed by members of the front office.Brock Holt’s unwavering support of the Red Sox and the Red Sox Foundation’s charitable efforts earned him the 2019 nomination by Major League Baseball for the Roberto Clemente Award, a recognition given to a player who best represents the game of baseball through positive contributions on and off the field. It was the fourth time Holt has been nominated for the award.Jackie Bradley Jr. maintained his ongoing commitment to the Red Sox Foundation’s Red Sox Scholars Program, inviting a different Scholar to every Friday home game to meet with him, watch batting practice, and enjoy the game.Once a month, Chris Sale met with sick children and veterans before the game and provided them with a suite. In August, kids had an opportunity to participate in clinics held at Fenway Park through the Sox Talk program. During Fan Appreciation weekend, players met with fans at the gates and participated in an on-field photo day. Red Sox players Brian Johnson, Bobby Poyner, Mike Shawaryn and Josh Taylor participated in the two-day 2019 Holiday Caravan, visiting with patients at the Jimmy Fund, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston Children’s Hospital, Dana-Farber’s Jimmy Fund Clinic, Shriners Hospital for Children, Massachusetts General Hospital for Children, and with kids at The BASE, a training academy that provides young baseball players with coaching and academic and life skills training.

The official team charity of the Boston Red Sox, the Red Sox Foundation has donated to over 1,900 organizations since its creation in 2002, and is focused on making a difference in the lives of children, families, veterans, and communities in need by improving their health, education, and recreational opportunities. Through partnerships with best-in-class organizations in health care, the Red Sox have helped raised over $150 million for cancer treat-ment and research for The Jimmy Fund, supported more than 24,000 veterans and their families suffering from the “invisible wounds of war” with the Home Base Program, and helped the Dimock Center serve over 19,000 patients annually with health and human services. The Foundation’s self-run education and youth baseball programs have helped 301 Boston Public Schools students with college scholarships, and promotes healthy choices and valuable life skills to more than 2,000 urban youth annually through its RBI baseball and softball programs. The Red Sox are the only 2-time winner of the Allan H. Selig Award for Philanthropic Excellence. The club earned the inaugural award in 2010 for the Red Sox Scholars program, then won again in 2019 for the Home Base program.

The Red Sox and the Jimmy FundTeammates for LifeNo cause is more deeply rooted in the fiber of the Red Sox than the fight against cancer. It was that way when Ted Williams would visit the young patients of legendary doctor Sidney Farber on his way to Fenway Park in the 1940s, it is that way today, and it will remain that way until cancer has been vanquished.The enduring partnership between the Red Sox and the Jimmy Fund, which officially started in 1953, included last season the annual spring training visit by a host of Jimmy Fund kids, and more than $3.6 million raised during last August’s 18th Annual Red Sox Jimmy Fund Radio-Telethon on WEEI and NESN, bringing the total raised to more than $57 million since the telethon’s inception. The entire Red Sox team visited the set to take photos with patients and show their support. Over the years, the Red Sox have helped the Jimmy Fund raise more than $150 million for cancer treatment and research.Veteran Brock Holt served as the team’s Jimmy Fund captain in each season from 2015-19.

Fighting the Battles That Matter on the Home FrontWhen the Red Sox went to Washington, D.C., in the aftermath of their World Series victories in 2004, 2007, 2013, and 2018, they did so at the invitation of the White House, Presidents Bush, Obama and Trump paying tribute to their success. The Sox appreciated the honor, but the trips to the nation’s capital would take on a deeper and more lasting meaning, one inspired by their visits after each ceremony to the military personnel recovering from their wounds in the Walter Reed Army Medical Center and associated hospitals.The Red Sox, to a man, were profoundly affected by the courageous men and women they met, and Chairman Tom Werner was moved to find a way that the ball club could make a positive impact on the lives of those who had given so much in service to their country. His vision, as Chairman of the Red Sox Foundation, inspired the club to partner with Massachusetts General Hospital to create the Home Base Program. Along with the team’s decades-long commitment to the Jimmy Fund, it has become a focal point of the team’s com-munity outreach, one that has provided an extraordinary support system to wounded veterans and their families.The Home Base Program is the first partnership of its kind in the nation between an academic medical center and a Major League Baseball team. As a National Center of Excellence, Home Base operates the largest private-sector clinic in the nation devoted to healing invisible wounds such as post-traumatic stress disorder and traumatic brain injury. Since its inception, Home Base has served more than 24,000 veterans and family members with care and support, provided over 78,000 on-line and in-person training sessions to clinicians, educators, first responders and community members nationally, and remains at the forefront of discovering new treatments. In September, 2018, Home Base officially opened the doors to its new, state-of-the-art facility in the Charlestown Navy Yard. The center has doubled Home Base’s capacity, providing the space and resources needed to significantly enhance the mental health care and support services provided to service members, Veterans, and their families.The Red Sox Foundation to date has committed over $31 million to the program, with the majority raised through its annual Run to Home Base. Last year marked the 10th annual Run to Home Base, which took place on July 27, 2019 and honored Families of the Fallen, including those whose family member died in service, and those who lost a loved one post-service by suicide. The Home Base program remains deeply appreciative of the support offered by Governor Charlie Baker and Boston Mayor Marty Walsh.

The Red Sox and DimockSimply Saving LivesIn the heart of the city, at the soul of its core, sits an institution that tackles the toughest issues. A caring lifeline for those who need it most, the Dimock Center is a comprehensive non-profit health and social services facility in Roxbury and a regional leader in addressing opioid addiction. The Red Sox Foundation, a supporter for 18 years, is the largest contributor to Dimock, which serves over 19,000 patients annually with health and human services. John W. Henry – together with more than 200 baseball operations staff members and Aramark--have personally volunteered at this Roxbury institution.

Red Sox ScholarsEducation for LifeThe Red Sox Scholars is a college success program that awards a $10,000 college scholarship to 12 Boston Public School 7th graders each year. The Foundation then provides academic, professional, and social support to students for at least the next nine years to ensure they graduate from college with as little debt as possible and are prepared to enter the workforce – as well as feeling part of a family of resources for years to come.Beyond Boston, the Red Sox Foundation’s New England Service Scholarship program provides college scholarships of $1,000 to 250 graduating seniors in each of the other five New England states. The program is sponsored by Ford Motor Company and National Grid in Rhode Island. The funding also comes in part from unique Red Sox Foundation license plates in Connecticut and Rhode Island.

Youth Baseball ProgramsPlay Ball for LifeRBI (Reviving Baseball in Inner Cities): Our vision is for every young person in New England to have access and opportunity to play baseball and softball. As such, the Red Sox Foundation runs the RBI and Jr. RBI Leagues, which annually serve 2,000 boys and girls, ages 5 to 18, in Boston. RBI provides team equipment, uniforms, field access and umpires at no cost to players and their families, and supports a cohort of dedicated coaches who use baseball and softball as a platform to teach core values of teamwork, respect and leadership.BOSTON AREA CHURCH LEAGUE: For the 18th straight year, the Red Sox are helping to nurture the Boston Area Church League, which the club created with former Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino on August 8, 2002. Children play Saturday double headers with pastors as coaches, police as umpires, and assistant district attorneys as volun-teers. Several hundred children then enjoy a Red Sox game at Fenway Park, and relationships created on the ball field carry over into the neighborhoods.RED SOX CHILDREN’S RETREATS: For the 17th straight year, the Red Sox helped operate Red Sox Children’s Retreats at the Ron Burton Training Village in Hubbardston, MA. In a partnership announced December 13, 2002, shortly before the Boston Patriots’ ailing football star passed away, his son and namesake, a longtime member of the Red Sox, brings children from neighborhoods long on asphalt and short on grass to weekends at the verdant camp created by this remarkable sports family. The children use the lure of sports to learn harmony, life skills, love, and fellowship.LINDOS SUEÑOS: For the past 15 years, the Red Sox have also operated their Lindos Sueños Program, in which Boston-area teens travel to the Dominican Republic to play baseball and engage in community service projects with their teenage counterparts from the island. More than 100 Boston-area teens have participated. It is a remarkable experience to see how quickly socioeconomic backgrounds and different languages give way to unity through the language and heart of baseball. The Lindos Sueños Program is sponsored by JetBlue.LITTLE LEAGUE: The Red Sox Foundation provided team sponsorships to Little League programs in Massachusetts and Rhode Island, sponsored State Tournaments in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Maine as well as leadership and instructional skills training for coaches and administrators. The initiative is supported by partnerships with the PawSox Foundation and Portland Sea Dogs.

Red Sox OwnershipJohn W. Henry, Principal OwnerJohn W. Henry is in his 19th season as Principal Owner of the Boston Red Sox, but in one way his relationship to baseball has changed little since he was growing up in rural Arkan-sas, listening to games broadcast on a Zenith short-wave radio. “I certainly identify with the fans,” he said, “because I’ve been one my entire life.” And from February 27, 2002, the day an investment group led by Mr. Henry and Tom Werner bought the Red Sox, he understood the mandate he had inherited.“Win a World Series? That’s not my choice, it’s my role, it’s my obligation to New En-gland,” Mr. Henry said. “That’s what I’ve been charged with. When you bid on the Red Sox, the challenge you’re undertaking is nothing short of winning the World Series.”

Four World Series titles – 2004, 2007, 2013, and 2018 – have earned Fenway Sports Group, Mr. Henry and his part-ners, a special place in Red Sox history. Two seasons into FSG’s ownership in 2004, the franchise won baseball’s ultimate prize and ended an 86-year drought, dating back to 1918. The quest continues, the team’s success only reinforcing Mr. Henry’s determination that the Red Sox remain a peren-nial contender, with the goal of playing meaningful games in October. In 2018, the Red Sox won 108 regular season games, breaking the club record of 105 set in 1912, the year Fenway Park opened. And, with 11 more victories in the Postseason, 2018 marked the winningest season in Red Sox history.In one sense, Mr. Henry says, he is owner by proxy. The true owners, he asserts, are Red Sox fans, those in New England and spread across the country and globally in numbers deserving of the designation, “Red Sox Nation.” He sees his role as being a steward of this much-loved baseball team, which entails providing a championship-caliber product on the field while also serving as an involved and committed member of the community. By any measure, the R
