MLB.com
The farewell tour of David Ortiz continued to take shape on Thursday when the Boston Red Sox slugger said his goodbye to spring training baseball in Florida forever.
"Big Papi" made sure to leave his mark on the more than 7,000 in attendance at CenturyLink Sports Complex by taking Minnesota Twins starter Kyle Gibson deep into the right-field stands for his first home run of the spring during his final Grapefruit League at-bat.
Ortiz - who is set to retire at the end of the 2016 campaign - enters his 20th season in the bigs, having already hit 503 regular-season long balls.
