You'd be hard-pressed to find a more beloved Red Sox duo than Ramirez and Ortiz.

The legendary sluggers combined for 757 home runs during their tenures in Boston and earned two World Series titles together in 2004 and '07. Ortiz also led the Red to a championship in 2013.

Boston and Detroit begin a three-game series on Monday night.

With both Ortiz and the Tigers at Fenway Park, there's bound to be plenty of flashbacks of Big Papi's game-tying grand slam in the 2013 American League Championship Series.
