In 1993, outfielder Manny Ramirez made his debut with the Cleveland Indians (now Cleveland Guardians). After spending eight seasons in the Tribe, Manny moved to Boston for the most memorable part of his career, which encompassed two World Championships.

With 12 All-Star appearances, Manny Ramirez moved to the Dodgers in 2008, before spending one year with the White Sox in 2010, and before finally being forced out of the major league circuit due to his involvement with steroids. Nevertheless, that didn’t take away his legacy in the sport. And the Guardians veteran, who was also among Yankee great Derek Jeter’s biggest rivals, will now be entering the Guardians Hall of Fame.

In 2022, before calling a Boston Red Sox vs Detroit Tigers game at Fenway Park, Manny Ramirez was honored into the BoSox Hall of Fame.

Now, as reported by MLB insider Hector Gomez, Manny Ramirez will enter the Guardians Hall of Fame in August 2023, when the Tribe takes on the Detroit Tigers. The iconic moment for the stained Ramirez comes one year after he entered the Boston Red Sox Hall of Fame after throwing the ceremonial first pitch before a Tigers-Red Sox game.
