Red Sox legend to throw out first pitch before Game 1 of the NLCS

The MLB postseason continues on Sunday as the first game of the NLCS matchup between the Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Mets will take place at Dodgers Stadium.

Before the game, a Boston Red Sox legend will deliver the first pitch, as the Dodgers will welcome Manny Ramirez back.

Ramirez spent his first eight seasons with Cleveland before joining the Red Sox for eight more. With Boston, he won two World Series and earned six Silver Slugger awards.

The Red Sox traded Ramirez to the Dodgers in 2008 a three-team trade that sent outfielder Jason Bay and infielder Josh Wilson to Boston from the Pittsburgh Pirates. In that deal, Boston also sent Brandon Moss and Craig Hansen to the Pirates.

Ramirez played three seasons in Los Angeles before finishing up his MLB career with the Chicago White Sox and Tampa Bay Rays.

It will be interesting to see if the enigmatic Ramirez has anything up his sleeve for this first pitch that would fall under the category of "Manny being Manny."
