The Red Sox will pay tribute to Rivera in a pregame ceremony on Sunday, the team announced. Rivera, 43, has voiced his plans to retire at the end of the season after 19 seasons. Major League Baseball’s all-time saves leader has made more appearances at Fenway than any opposing reliever in the park’s history.
The ceremony is scheduled to begin at about 7:30 p.m. prior to the 8:05 p.m. scheduled first pitch.
The Yankees trail the Rays by one game for the American League’s second and final wild card spot.
