The AHL's Springfield Thunderbirds are wearing Red Sox-styled jerseys for David Ortiz Night

The T-Birds will proudly show off their appreciation for the player-turned-TV-analyst on Saturday, Nov. 11 when they don special Ortiz-themed jerseys. 
They look pretty great: 

If you're curious, yes, Ortiz will be there for the special night:

Now this is a theme night done right!
