Red Sox COO Sam Kennedy is one of many people excited to see Baseball Hall of Famer Wade Boggs have his No. 26 retired by the club this season.

The ceremony will take place on May 26, before the Red Sox host the Colorado Rockies at Fenway Park. Boggs batted .338 with 2,098 hits in 11 seasons with the Red Sox.

Check out Kennedy's take on Boggs' career, exciting non-baseball events at Fenway Park and the new additions to the Red Sox's roster in the video above.
