Watch Xander Bogaerts Go Undercover In Aruba, Surprise Red Sox Fans

Xander Bogaerts went out of his way to provide some Boston Red Sox fans their “best day ever.”

The shortstop welcomed a group of the team’s fans to Aruba recently but did so in a different sort of uniform: that of “Cousin Sherman Brown.” Bogaerts went undercover — wearing a suit that added dozens of extra pounds; a dreadlocked wig; sunglasses and big hat — alongside his brother, Jair, who gave the fans a tour, which included some spots they frequented as youngsters.

Aruba’s tourism board published Bogaerts’ undercover video July 10, one day after the MLB All-Star Game. We’re not sure when Bogaerts filmed the segment, but his travel hasn’t cooled his red-hot bat.
