Fans Remember Former Fish

'Lowell got a 30-second standing ovation before his first at-bat, and even Florida starter Dontrelle Willis stepped off the mound and joined in the applause. (Alex) Gonzalez received a similar greeting from fans on his first trip to the plate in the Red Sox gray road uniform.

'"It was as nice an ovation as I've ever gotten," Lowell said. "I felt overwhelmed. I was humbled and appreciative. I'm glad Alex received the same type of ovation. I hope they can show some highlights of Josh Beckett and bring him out, too."' (SI.com)
