White-Hot Stretch Lands Roman Anthony On Crazy List Of Red Sox Legends

Roman Anthony put on another great performance Monday night, and in doing so, joined impressive Red Sox company.

The rookie outfielder went 3-for-5 with one home run and two RBIs in Boston’s 9-3 home win over the Colorado Rockies. The strong showing continued a white-hot stretch for Anthony, who went 17-for-44 with a .386 average and six extra-base hits in his last 10 games. If that sounds good for a 21-year-old big leaguer, it’s because it is.

Per Red Sox stats expert J.P. Long, Anthony is one of just five players in franchise history with 17-plus hits in a 10-game span at 21 years old or younger. Here’s the full list:

— Roman Anthony (2025)
— Tony Conigliaro (1964)
— Ted Williams (1939)
— Bobby Doerr (1938)
— Tris Speaker (1909)

Williams, Doerr and Speaker are all Hall of Famers, and Conigliaro could’ve been if not for an eye injury that derailed his career. So, yeah, Anthony had a decent two weeks.

The much-hyped prospect got off to a rough start after his promotion with a 5-for-44 stretch over his first 15 games. The ensuing 10-game tear left Anthony with a .250 average, two homers and a .751 OPS entering Tuesday night’s game against the Rockies.

First pitch from Fenway Park is scheduled for 7:10 p.m. ET.
