VIDEO: Red Sox Fans Give Kevin Youkilis An Ovation At Fenway Park

When Kevin Youkilis was lifted for a pinch runner in the seventh inning on Sunday, it became clear that Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine was giving the Boston fans one last chance to salute their long-time third baseman.

Yup, according to a report, the Red Sox have agreed to trade Kevin Youkalis to the White Sox.

Here’s a look at Youkilis’s last moment on the field at Fenway Park in a Red Sox uniform. The fans call “Yoooooooouk” to get him out of the dugout for a curtain call. As one fan says at the end, “I’m gonna cry.”

One Red Sox fan, ncblake, uploaded the picture below to Instagram with the caption “Tribute.”
