Big Papi, meet The Brow.
Two of the the biggest stars in their respective sports, David Ortiz and Anthony Davis of the New Orleans Pelicans got together to exchange a mammoth handshake on Friday prior to the Boston Red Sox contest against the Los Angeles Angels in L.A.
Although Davis was all smiles when he met the legendary designated hitter of the Red Sox, he was clearly at the ball park to root on Johnny Giavotella and the Angels.

The visit from the near seven-foot Davis was just one of many memorable moments for the retiring Ortiz, whose already been gifted with customized cowboy attire, a humidor of cigars and even a jar of peanut butter during his farewell tour.
