Like father, like son: Lucas Ramirez homers for Brazil in WBC with dad Manny Ramirez watching

Manny Ramirez hit plenty of home runs in his 19-year major league career — 555, to be exact. On Friday night at Daikin Park, the 12-time All-Star relished watching someone else go yard when his son Lucas Ramirez hit a leadoff homer for Brazil against the United States in the World Baseball Classic. “I was looking forward for him to do something special,” Manny Ramirez told The Associated Press.
