Aly Raisman makes David Ortiz wear her medals before throwing first pitch
Aly Raisman stopped by by Fenway Park on Friday to throw out the first pitch -- and to visit with David Ortiz -- before the Red Sox-Royals game.
The three-time Olympic gold medal-winning gymnast actually put her medals around Big Papi’s neck -- as opposed to Olympic swimmer Katie Ledecky, who made Bryce Harper hold her medals earlier this week before she threw the first pitch at a Nationals game.
Ortiz, who is known for his huge gold chains, seemed to be overwhelmed by the weight of Raisman’s jewelry.

Raisman, a Massachusetts native, enjoyed her night at Fenway, even though the Royals came away with a 6-3 win.
