“There’s been a lot of great players to play there,” Anthony said. “When you play left, it’s a big task.”

Roman Anthony’s recent hot stretch has put him among Red Sox greats. Baseball’s top prospect is 17-for-44 with six extra-base hits in his last 10 games, per Red Sox stats expert J.P. Long. At 21 years and 56 days old, he joined four other players who had at least 17 hits in a 10-game span.

Roman Anthony clubbed his first career home run at Fenway Park on Monday night, as the top prospect in baseball continues to heat up for the Boston Red Sox.
