There is always a question about what an iconic athlete will do when they retire. While a longterm plan may still not be in place for Boston Red Sox slugger David Ortiz, he does have a speaking engagement lined up this fall.
Ortiz will be part of a featured session at the Momentum Sports Marketing Symposium. He will be joined on the stage by his agent Alex Radetsky.
The symposium runs November 9-10 at the Crowne Plaza in New York City's Times Square. This is the 14th annual edition of the event that gathers the top decision makers in sports marketing.
Ortiz has been one of the more marketable and likeable baseball stars of his era. As he winds down the final days of his career, he ranks 17th all-time with 539 home runs.
Ortiz is also the career leader in home runs hit by a designated hitter. He has played for the Boston Red Sox since 2003 and made ten All-Star teams during that tenure.
With the Red Sox, Ortiz has won three World Series titles. In 2006, he hit a team record 54 home runs.
