Youk給各位紅襪迷的一封信
http://0rz.tw/D7t3M
What an amazing run I have had these past 8 1/2 years in Boston!
It has been an honor and a privilege to play every home game of my career in
Boston before a sold out Fenway Park. I would like to thank everyone who gave
me an opportunity in Boston, and stood behind me through all these years. To
the Spinners, the Sea Dogs, the PawSox, and to all those teammates on the Red
Sox since 2004, I am forever grateful.
I want to thank the
Red Sox ownership for all the hard work and dedication to
making the Red Sox and Fenway Park a special place to play. They have always
supported me on the field, and have helped out in many ways off the field. I
can't thank them enough for my time in Boston.
To
Terry Francona, who led us to 2 World Series championships in 2004 and
2007, I thank you for your support and personal guidance through my career
with the Red Sox. I thank you for being there for me not just as a manager
but as a friend off the field. Thank you for the opportunity to play in 3
All-Star Games, winning 2 World Series, winning the Hank Aaron Award and a
Gold Glove. I could have never accomplished all this without all my great
teammates and coaches who made me a better player.
I want to thank
my parents and brothers for all their support from the day I
got drafted. Without my Dad's hard work building that batting cage, and my
Mom tirelessly schlepping me around to all my games, I would never have lived
my dreams in Boston. I want to thank my beautiful wife Julie and all her
family for all their support. We will always cherish Boston since it was the
city in which we met and married.
I also want to thank all the
philanthropic people around New England and
across the country who supported my charity in the past and continue to
support Youk’s Kids. Since its inception, we have raised over $3 million to
support the neediest of children in Red Sox Nation. While my days of playing
for the Red Sox have ended, I am still committed to serving the New England
area through my charity. I thank all the charity’s sponsors for all they
have done, and their continued support going forward.
And, last but no means least, to
all the Red Sox Nation, the home of the most
dedicated and knowledgeable fans in baseball, I thank you from the bottom of
my heart. That final game at Fenway was the most emotional day of my life on
the baseball field. It could not have been scripted any better. And to all
those kids out there in Red Sox Nation, I can give you my Dad’s advice. “
Life is like a throw to first base, always aim high.”
I love you all, and thanks,
Kevin Youkilis
