The Red Sox kick off their Grapefruit League schedule on Saturday against the Rays. What better way to prepare than to do a little gator hunting?

The Red Sox’ official Twitter account tweeted out a photo on Friday of outfielder Jonny Gomes and catcher David Ross posing in some gator hunting apparel. Manager John Farrell would probably prefer that his players get a good night sleep rather than going all Crocodile Dundee, but hey, if the boots fit, wear them.

Check out Gomes and Ross in their interesting get-ups in the photo below.
