Baseball legend David Ortiz gave medical workers at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center a surprise of a lifetime by giving away four seats for life to Boston Red Sox home games.
"I got to tell you guys from the very bottom of my heart how much I love you and respect you for what you guys are doing," Ortiz told the workers Sunday during an appearance on "Some Good News with John Krasinski." "Taking your life, taking your time, that's something that goes beyond everything."
We couldn’t have said it better ourselves, @johnkrasinski. ⚾️ ❤️

Krasinski proceeded to lead the medical workers to Fenway Park via "the most sanitized duck boat in America."
The health professionals threw out the first ceremonial pitch of the season after watching videos on the jumbotron of the mayor of Boston, the governor of Massachusetts, and the entire Red Sox team applauding them.
