Notre Dame and Boston College are set to face each other in the Shamrock Series at the legendary Fenway Park on Saturday night.
There's no one more familiar with playing at Fenway than David Ortiz, who had one request for the Fighting Irish:
By request of Ortiz himself, his locker will be occupied by no other than @THunterJr #GoIrish #ShamrockSeries pic.twitter.com/kVeEpcxS7M

The Red Sox legend spent six seasons in the Minnesota Twins organization with outfielder and Hunter Jr.'s father Torii Hunter. The 9-time Gold Glove winner showed his appreciation for Big Papi's gesture on his Instagram account.
Let's hope Hunter Jr. takes his father's advice to watch out for pranks by Ortiz.
Hunter Jr. has caught 21 passes for 267 yards and a pair of touchdowns during his junior year. Kickoff between the Irish and Eagles is set for 7:30 p.m.
