Brock Holt is completing his ninth season of major league baseball. The NJCAA All-Star and two-time, first-team All-Texas Eastern Athletic Conference shortstop for the Bulldogs in 2007 and 2008 also played at Rice University with coach Wayne Graham's 43-18 Owls. A ninth-round draft pick by Pittsburgh Pirates in 2009, Holt was traded to Boston, where he spent seven seasons with the Red Sox. The four-time Roberto Clemente Award nominee was chairman five years of The Jimmy Fund to benefit The Dana-Farber Cancer Institute of Boston. Holt finished eighth in balloting for the 2014 AL Rookie of The Year and was selected as Boston's only AL All-Star representative in 2015. On Oct. 2018, he became the first player to hit a post-season cycle as the Red Sox beat the Yankees, 16-1, in the American League Division Series.
