Ortiz — known as 'Big Papi' — even posed for a photo by the building's sales office with his broker, Fortune International Realty's Sheila Rosario Davey. She posted the image on Instagram last week to celebrate his pre-construction purchase.
Ortiz spent 14 of his 20 seasons with the Boston Red Sox, and won three World Series — and the World Series MVP in 2013. He's buying a three-bedroom, three-bath dwelling at the downtown Miami development. At 2,297 square feet, the condo also features a study, a library and a 472-square-foot terrace.
The sum that Ortiz is paying upon closing is not yet known. However, the price of a three-bedroom unit in the 77-story building ranges from $3.35 million to $3.75 million.

Texas beats Texas Tech 10-4 in decisive 3rd game of WCWS to win its 1st national championship
OKLAHOMA CITY — Mia Scott hit a grand slam, Teagan Kavan earned another win and Texas defeated Texas Tech 10-4 in Game 3 of the Women's College World Series championship series Friday night to win its first national title. Kavan, a sophomore, allowed no earned runs in all 31 2/3 innings she pitched at the World Series. She went 4-0 with a save in the World Series for the Longhorns and was named Most Outstanding Player. Leighann Goode hit a three-run home run, Kayden Henry had three hits and Scott, Reese Atwood and Katie Stewart each had two hits for Texas (56-12). Texas Tech star pitcher NiJaree Canady, who had thrown every pitch for the Red Raiders through their first five World Series games, was pulled after one inning in Game 3. The two-time National Fastpitch Coaches Association Pitcher of the Year gave up five runs on five hits and only threw 25 pitches. The loss came after she signed an NIL deal worth more than $1 million for the second straight year. Not even support from former Texas Tech football star Patrick Mahomes and his wife, Brittany, who were in attendance, could put the Red Raiders (54-14) over the top. Texas had lost to Oklahoma in the championship series two of the previous three years. Oklahoma was one of the teams Texas beat on its way to the championship. Canady's night started like many of her others, as she struck out the first batter she faced. After that, she didn't resemble the pitcher entered the game leading the nation in wins and ERA. Goode's homer in the first put the Longhorns up 5-0. Scott's blast came in the fourth inning and gave Texas a 10-0 lead. Hailey Toney was a bright spot for the Red Raiders. She singled to knock in two runs in the fifth, then singled to knock in another run in the seventh.

Soroka and Call help the Nationals beat the Rangers 2-0
WASHINGTON -- Michael Soroka struck out seven in six sparkling innings, and the Washington Nationals beat Patrick Corbin and the Texas Rangers 2-0 on Friday night. Soroka (3-3) allowed two hits and walked one. Brad Lord and Jose A. Ferrer each got three outs before Kyle Finnegan finished the two-hitter for his 18th save. The speedy game was over in 1 hour, 50 minutes. Adolis García singled with two outs in the fifth for Texas' first hit. Josh Smith added a one-out single in the sixth for the Rangers in their fourth consecutive loss. Washington took a 1-0 lead in the second when Nathaniel Lowe and Alex Call opened with back-to-back singles. Lowe went to third on a flyout and scored on a groundout by Robert Hassell III. Call led off the seventh with his first homer of the season. Corbin (3-5) allowed five hits in eight innings in his longest start of the season. He struck out two and walked none against his former team. The 35-year-old Corbin, who signed with the Rangers in March, went 47-77 with a 5.11 ERA over the past six seasons with the Nationals. In 2019 he was 14-7 with a 3.25 ERA and threw three scoreless innings in relief to pick up the win in Game 7 of the World Series against the Astros. The Rangers put two runners on in the sixth, but Soroka escaped the jam when Marcus Semien flied out. Texas has lost nine of its past 10 road games overall. It has dropped six straight road series openers. Rangers right-hander Jacob deGrom (5-2, 2.34 ERA), who has allowed two runs or fewer in nine consecutive starts, opposes left-hander Mitchell Parker (4-5, 4.71 ERA) in the middle game of the series on Saturday. ___
