Tim and Stacy Wakefield Honored After Their Death at Red Sox Game as Their Daughter Throws Out First Pitch


Tim and Stacy Wakefield were honored after their deaths from cancer at the Red Sox game on April 9, and their 17-year-old daughter Brianna threw out the first pitch

The 2004 Boston Red Sox were honored at Fenway Park on Tuesday for Opening Day — and the former players took the moment to remember their late teammate, Tim Wakefield. Brianna Wakefield, who lost her father last October as well as her mother, Stacy, in February, threw the ceremonial first pitch to Jason Varitek as members of the Red Sox championship team stood behind her on the mound. After Schilling shared the news without the couple's permission, the Red Sox requested privacy on behalf of the Wakefields in a statement obtained by PEOPLE at the time.
