Danger! Cuteness overload alert! It’s a parade of baby Sox, and no one is safe! Take a peek through a collection of photos of the Sox players as kids at your own peril- they’re just too adorable for words.
Who could this cute baby be? Take a guess, and find out if you’re right– and see a ton more baby Sox pictures– after the jump…
If anyone has any additional pictures of any of the Sox as kids, send ‘em my way and I’ll add them to the group.
Jacoby Ellsbury
Theo Epstein
Dustin Pedroia
(including two pictures with his older brother Brett)
Curt Schilling
Jason Varitek
Jon Lester
(with his younger cousin)
Tito Francona
Kevin Youkilis
Tim Wakefield
Josh Beckett
Doug Mirabelli
Mike Lowell
Trot Nixon (too cute not to include)
Thanks to jason-varitek.com for the pictures of kid Tek, to surviving grady for the picture of kid Theo, the Farmington Daily Times for the yearbook photo of kid Jacoby, and the Boston Globe, Jonathan Papelbon and family for the pictures of kid him.
OMG, I want to bite baby’s Paps face. LOL So damn cute.
ohmygod. I’m dead from cute overload, for sure.
Alright TG, even you must admit Beckett was one fugly teenager. Thankfully, you gave us the cuteness of BabyPap to cleanse the palate.
Aww, Jacoby was so adorable even at that age! And Beckett really was no eye-candy.
WHOA. The first one of ‘Tek looks exactly like this kid from my eighth grade class (whom I detested, but anyway)… scary!
Does anyone else think that Jacoby could pass for a little girl with really short hair?
OMG they were so cute.
Papelbon is superman.lol
I’m loving Baby-Pap. But Joshie? Holy cow – talk about an ugly duckling.
Hilarious. All of them.
Where’d you find all of these pictures anyway? (Aside from the places you mentioned.) I’m sure the players just *love* the thought of their past selves floating around the internet for us to point and laugh at. :)
Awwww, poor unfortunate(looking) Josh. He definitely has grown finer with age.
And the pictures mostly all came from newspapers- the Globe in particular, and a paper in Bend, OR for the Jacoby picture. The only one I’m clueless where I found it is the Tito picture- but I’m pretty sure that was on a newspaper website at some point as well. The Papelbon pictures all were submitted by his mom (I believe) for a feature story on him last year.
poor josh…he was like the homely semi-fat kid you would talk to in class only if he was sitting next to you…thank god he can throw a mean fastball
LOL, Mirabelli looks exactly. the. same. Does anyone know how old he was in that pic?
And as for Beckett, I think it’s really just the first one that’s less-than-flattering; probably just a bad shot. The 2nd one looks fine though. (:
Great pics of everyone!
The one of Paps in the Superman costume? It needs to be a poster.
Is that second picture of Dustin his Rookie card? >smirk
Apparently, I am the only one who finds the first Beckett picture adorable in that he looks really happy, unguarded, open. Clearly being superb at something has a price, cause he rarely looks this happy-goofy now (exceptions: WS and ALCS wins). No doubt some will report this to be a very good thing.
Mike Lowell, always was yummy.
Love the Tito pix.
Oh you forgot this one: http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y1/Piney/2006_Red_Sox/babywake.jpg
I dunno where I found it to be honest….I think it was from one of those Sox I Know things…I forget exactly
Wait…scractch that…I missed it first round *needs to look harder next time*
HAHAHA omg WIN. Paps is hysterical looking as a child, and why does PeeWee have that pic of Youk?
Apropos of the SuperPaps needing to be a poster, would there be any ownership problems with making a Baby Sox desktop wallpaper? And would anybody else be interested if I were a dork enough to make one?
absolutely LOVE dustin, adorable as always
Pedroia was so cute! I still
OMG that was the greatest thing i have EVER seen!
GO PEDROIA!!!!!!!!!
Hands down favorite the one with paps and the dog asleep on the couch. Probably the only time you will see a completly calm and still papelbon.
just loved the photos, they were so cute,but, when they grew up they were something….
wow!
