Boston Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz surprised fans around Boston, this time as a Lyft driver. Some fans were still able to recognize Big Papi, one of Boston’s iconic sports figure — maybe because the producers of the video spent about seven dollars on Ortiz’s “alter ego” costume.
Hey, at least he wasn’t wearing his Red Sox uniform while behind the wheel.
Ortiz will be retiring at the end of this season, but that didn’t stop him from his smack-talk about New York during his “moonlighting”.
“Do you like New York,” he asked a customer. “I don’t like New York, but I go there a couple times a month just to teach them how to drive. They don’t know what they’re doing out there. New York drivers suck, man.”
On Tuesday, Ortiz shed light on his memories in New York before his departure.
