Baseball was lively in Montreal on Friday as the Toronto Blue Jays and Boston Red Sox went head-to-head in an exhibition contest and fans made sure to show their appreciation to both a legend and a local product.

Both Red Sox slugger David Ortiz, who is set to enter his final season in the big leagues, and Blue Jays catcher Russell Martin, who was born in Canada and grew up in Montreal, received standing ovations from a packed crowd at Olympic Stadium.
