Red Sox turn pink to celebrate Mother's Day

The Red Sox turned pink for their series finale on Sunday afternoon in Toronto as teams around MLB recognized Mother's Day. Boston players wore pink caps against the Blue Jays, with many using pink bats and accessories. "It's huge to be able to go out and honor my mom and my wife on Mother's Day," said first baseman Mitch Moreland. "It kind of brings a little bit more of a meaning to the game."
