Ex-Red Sox Outfielder Continues Ridiculous Opening Day Streak

Tyler O’Neill is a total Opening Day cheat code. The former Boston Red Sox outfielder continued a remarkable streak.

The current Baltimore Orioles slugger took the field with an Opening Day home run in five consecutive seasons. He brought that streak to six years Thursday with a three-run blast off Toronto Blue Jays starter Jose Berrios at Rogers Centre.

You can catch O’Neill’s shot here.

The 29-year-old benefited this winter when he joined another American League East team on a three-year, $49.5 million contract with the Orioles.

O’Neill blasted 31 home runs in his lone season with the Red Sox in 2024. He launched a solo shot in the eighth inning of Boston’s Opening Day win on the road against the Seattle Mariners.

The Red Sox won’t have to wait long to see O’Neill in his new threads when Boston visits Baltimore next week for the second series of the regular season. That series prelude the home opener for Fenway Park for the Red Sox against the St. Louis Cardinals.
