Yaz makes Giants fan’s birthday dream come true in amazing way originally appeared on NBC Sports Bay Area
Mike Yastrzemski impressed before and during the Giants’ 3-1 victory over the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park on Thursday.
But Yastrzemski’s solo home run in the third inning wasn’t the highlight of his homecoming in Massachusetts this week.
Before Thursday’s game, Yastrzemski made sure a young Giants fan received everything on her 11th birthday wish list.

The young fan had five things she wanted to accomplish on Thursday, and Yastrzemski helped her complete the list by not only taking a photo with her, but also signing her sign.

Yastrzemski, who was born about 26 miles north of Fenway in Andover, Massachusetts, was making his second career trip back to Boston as a member of the Giants. During the just-completed three-game series, he finished 2-for-7 with a homer and two RBI.
But he went 1-on-1 to make it the best birthday ever for a lucky eleven-year-old.
