2025 Inaugural Mark

Roman Anthony - First Hit (17/99)

After entering 2025 as both Boston’s top prospect and MLB’s No. 1 overall, Roman Anthony’s rise to the Show felt inevitable. The 21-year-old outfielder made his long-awaited debut against the Tampa Bay Rays, delivering in a big way with a two-run double to left field—his first Major League hit—breaking a scoreless tie and helping the Red Sox secure a 3-1 win. Before his call-up, Anthony was raking at Triple-A Worcester, slashing .288 with 10 home runs and 29 RBI. Now on a Red Sox squad still searching for its identity, Anthony brings fresh energy to a club looking to reassert itself in the competitive American League East.
