Video shows emotional moment that Marcelo Mayer learned that Red Sox called him

Boston Red Sox Top Prospect Marcelo Mayer is called in the big leagues, and now we have a video the moment he learned that he joined the MLB Club.

Mayer played for Triple A Worcester Red Sox when manager Chad Tracy called him to his office. He announced Mayer that on Saturday he would not play against the Durham Bull in the team's second game of the team's second game. Then Tracy revealed why Mayer would miss the game that he would start the Red Sox in Fenway Park.

Video is below.

It's a great moment.

The Red Sox will start Mayer in his debut in the big league in the third base after Alex Bregman hit the injured list with a right quad burden. It could be a long injury, so the 22-year-old will probably get a long look at the line-up.

Boston selected Mayer with the No. 4 selection in 2021 MLB Draft from the Eastlake High School in Chula Vista, California, 43 games in Triple A.
