The Boston Red Sox have announced that they will retire Wade Boggs' No. 26 at Fenway Park in a pregame ceremony on May 26.

Boggs, who was a first-ballot Hall of Fame inductee in 2005, is wearing a Red Sox cap on his plaque.

"I am so humbled and honored to be among the greatest legends to ever put on a uniform for the amazing city of Boston," Boggs said in a statement. "To say that your number will never be worn again is the highest honor an athlete can receive. Thank you."
