Van Ness Street Player Banners

Suspended high above Van Ness Street between Gates B and D, these banners represent legends in Red Sox history. The players shown entered the National Baseball Hall of Fame wearing a Red Sox hat, or joined the Hall of Fame without a specific team hat but spent a sizable percentage of their careers in a Boston uniform. They range from early baseball immortals such as Cy Young, Tris Speaker, Jimmy Collins, and Harry Hooper to more recent Cooperstown inductees like Carlton Fisk, Dennis Eckersley, Wade Boggs, and Jim Rice. In addition to the names displayed on the banners, several other Hall of Famers played for the Red Sox, while a number of former Boston managers and two long-time team executives also reside in Cooperstown.
