Red Sox unveil Fenway Park-themed Green Monster jerseys
The Green Monster at Fenway Park is honored every night by "Wally," the mascot of the Boston Red Sox. Now, it's commemorated in the team's attire. The Red Sox unveiled their "Fenway Greens" on Friday, which is a City Connect uniform dedicated to the 37-foot, 2-inch wall — otherwise known as the Green Monster — that ranges from left to center field in Fenway Park. Starting pitchers Brayan Bello and Garrett Crochet and outfielder Jarren Duran wore the "Fenway Greens," which are the same colored green as the Green Monster, in a photo posted by the team. The Red Sox have a three-game series at home against the Atlanta Braves starting on Friday night, which is when the jerseys will be debuted, with Game 2 of the series on Saturday night airing on FOX and the FOX Sports app at 7:15 p.m. ET. [Related: MLB rivalry weekend: A history of baseball's weirdest beefs] "This iteration of City Connects has been two-plus years in the making, for sure, maybe for even longer than that," Red Sox chief marketing and partnership officer Troup Parkinson said Friday, according to "I think we've been intrigued by the idea of somehow making Fenway the star of a jersey." Boston's yellow, Boston Marathon-themed City Connect jerseys will remain in the team's rotation. The "Fenway Greens" will be worn again on May 23, when Boston hosts the Baltimore Orioles, with a schedule thereafter yet to be determined. As for the players depicted wearing the "Fenway Greens," Bello has posted a 2.33 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 17 strikeouts across five starts this season; Crochet, an offseason acquisition from the Chicago White Sox, has posted a 1.93 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 65 strikeouts across nine starts; Duran has totaled two home runs and 23 RBIs, while boasting a .253/.298/.376 slash line. As part of its home run ritual, Boston players have thrown on a "Wally" head in the dugout this season. Boston is 22-23, good for second place in the American League East.

Rare whale spotted in mouth of Boston Harbor
A rare whale has been spotted close to the shoreline of Boston, directly by the entrance to the harbor. The North Atlantic right whale — an endangered species with just about 370 whales left in the population — was first spotted closer to the shore of Massachusetts on May 7 by researchers from the Massachusetts Department of Marine Fisheries. It was seen again by NOAA scientists on Thursday. By Friday, the NOAA researchers tracked the whale in waters less than 2,000 miles from Castle Island in South Boston. It was right by the entrance to the Boston Harbor, according to The massive animal is so close that the public may be able to see it from land — but any boaters on the water should keep a very wide berth, said Nora Ives, a marine scientist studying North Atlantic right whales at Oceana. 'Because they're critically endangered, every whale counts,' Ives said. 'It's very exciting to have them close to shore, but also a little scary.... If you're on the water, go slow for those below‚' Ives said. There's also the possibility this right whale is not traveling alone, she added. As the two main threats to North Atlantic right whales are vessel strikes and rope entanglements, Ives reminded the public and boaters of laws mandating to stay at least 500 yards away from the whales. 'The issue with them being so close to Boston Harbor is that there's lots of people, lots of boats and lots of traffic,' Ives said. 'These are slow whales, they don't have a dorsal fin and they like to hang out at the surface of the ocean, so they're really hard to see. They can't get out of your way.' Ives said. But at a 500-yard distance, Ives encouraged the public to take pictures and share them with Whale Alert, an app designed to share public whale sightings. While it's not rare to see right whales near the Massachusetts shorelines, Ives said it's been a 'really unusual season all around' for where right whale populations have been traveling. Two female whales traveled all the way to calving grounds by Florida, but then went around the Florida panhandle and ended up in the Gulf of Mexico near Alabama, Ives said — something that's only happened 'five times this century.' Another mother and calf pair last seen in the Cape Cod Bay were able to evade researchers on their way back to New England after they'd went to the calving grounds.
