David Ortiz played the role of hero on Thursday, belting a three-run walkoff homer that powered the Red Sox to a 6-3 victory over the Rangers.
Jonny Gomes started the rally with a leadoff double off Michael Kirkman in the ninth, and Dustin Pedroia was intentionally walked to get to Big Papi. It was his only hit in four trips to the plate on the evening, but he certainly made the most of it. He's been incredible since returning from the disabled list, hitting .325/.399/.624 with 11 bombs and 42 RBI through his first 42 games.
