Roman Anthony Impresses as Red Sox Rookie
Boston’s rookie standout, Roman Anthony, is turning heads in Major League Baseball with his impressive debut season with the Red Sox. Former Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts recently praised Anthony, highlighting his maturity and refined plate discipline. "You kidding me? Who the hell is doing that at 21?" Bogaerts remarked, underscoring Anthony’s exceptional performance at such a young age.
Since joining the Red Sox in June, Anthony, who turned 21 on May 13, has made a significant impact, boasting a batting average of .282, along with two home runs, 16 doubles, and 20 RBIs through 51 games. His .395 on-base percentage particularly stands out as a testament to his disciplined approach at the plate.
Anthony, who has admired Bogaerts’ successful career, expressed his excitement to connect with the former All-Star during the Red Sox’s series in San Diego. Both players share a commonality as blue-chip prospects who found immediate success in the big leagues. "It’s been fun to relate to guys like him and learn from their journeys," Anthony noted.
As he continues to shine, the baseball world eagerly anticipates Anthony’s future contributions to the Red Sox.
