I can't believe he's gone. It's like we just heard his voice last week. Wake did so much for us as a RedSox before and after. I hope he knows just how important he was and remains to all of us. Thanks Wake for all the memories.. Rest In Peace my brother..
Everyone has been saying he was completely fine prior to his surgery. Obviously, knowing there was cancer and needing the surgery to address it. As much as I hate to speculate, I have a feeling that the surgery had some major complications that led to this. We will never know. It’s just really freaking sad. He will always be my favorite Red Sox.

Funny how the Sox don't let anyone wear the number 21 any longer. We all saw what Clemens turned out to be. They should AT ONCE retire the number 49, as He did a hell of a lot more than be a star pitcher for Boston. Should have done it while he was alive to see it. ⚾
Tears in my eyes watching this video… Thanks Tim Wakefield for helping to break the “curse” of the Bambino. You will be remembered for your achievements both on and off the field. ❤️
as a die hard yankee fan i have to say wakefield personified class. He was the type of ballplayer you wanted your own son to emulate. A true gentlemen of the sport and a worthy opponent. He will be greatly missed
Two of my best baseball memories are from Tim Wakefield. I was at the game at Three Rivers where he pitched a complete game shut out in '92. I was 13 and became a Tim Wakefield fan for life. A year or two later when he was in triple A, Buffalo was playing my home team, the Nashville Sounds. My family went to the game because Wakefield was starting. He did not have a good game. I managed to catch a foul ball that day. After the game I was able to get word into the dugout that I wanted Tim to autograph it. He came back out from the locker room and signed it even though he was clearly frustrated with his performance that day. Today, it is my most prized baseball memory, and is another illustration of the quality of his character.
Truth be told I remember being super nervous when Tim took the mound in 2004 against the Yanks and literally being at the edge of my seat but of course Tim was brilliant and pitched phenomenally. One of the most fun and emotional roller coaster on the field. Thank you Tim for all the years of fun baseball
Tim was a true empath, with the most beautiful aura. Baseball was the vehicle he used to spread his light to people. He was also a fine example of how reinventing yourself can lead you to your true purpose in life.
Just seemed like the nicest guy. Humble and not cocky like other players. I don’t remember being so sad for the loss of a celebrity. Recently I was saddened by Christine McVies passing. And David Crosby’s passing - but he was kind of a jerk. Wakefield was the guy I always expected on the mound the following season in a game where the rosters seem to become more and more like musical chairs. Wake was always there. And when he retired, we saw him in the studio giving his knowledge and optimism. I’m going to miss you Wake.
This is a beautiful tribute. Thanks to everyone who put this together. I was crushed when I heard of his passing as not only my favorite of all time but knowing all the good he did. Thank you to his family for giving us all such a gift and sharing him with the world.
The Red Sox won the 2004 World Series I am a die hard Boston Red Sox fan for live Red Sox vs cardinals in Busch Stadium in St. Louis go Red Sox baseball. !!!!
Tim’s passing is so unbelievably sad. I’ve been a fan of his for many years. Got to see him play a few times at Fenway and on the road. What a classy, gritty and selfless player and gentleman! Godspeed to you Tim and deepest prayers and condolences for his wife and family. 💔😢
He will be there in spirit in Fenway Park he is a Red Sox legend player Pitcher for the future and forever definitely he will be always be there at Fenway Park with the Sox fans and players and managers pitching staff . Tim Wakefield is a mentor to the Red Sox team organization Red Sox fans always be in Tim Wakefield heart me I am a die hard Red Sox fan . Red Sox fans and players and managers and pitching staff of love Tim Wakefield so much we love you Tim Wakefield you are a true legend with the Red Sox pitcher on the Boston Red Sox baseball team organization . Memories of Tim Wakefield 😢 RIP Tim Wakefield !!!!
We lost a true legend and humanitarian for the work he did with children. He gave so much for the game and for the world. Condolences to the Wakefield family.
Way to young. I will always remember him in the 2004 series against the Yanks, being down 3 games to 0 and coming back to win the ALCS and move on to the WS , winning it for the first time in i think 86 years. Wakefield was a key player in that series. He was one of the best knuckleballers to ever do it. RIP TW. 😭
He left his legacy all over the game and outside of it. He touched so many people in life. I met him a few times and you could tell he was a good person, with an amazing heart. I was at his 199 win and was so happy I could see him pitch so many times. He was and always will be a Red Sox Hero and Legend.
As a Yankees fan I knew him mostly as the guy who gave up the homer to Boone that sent the Yankees to the WS. Obviously he was a lot more than that. Baseball does a very poor job in promoting its players nationally. What they do and contribute on and OFF the field. But some like Wakefield probably wanted to keep his charitable contributions private which is understandable. RIP Tim Wakefield a truly good person.
Tears in my eyes watching this....I've been a Sox fan since '78 (great time to jump on the bus, right?) and I've cheered for so many players - Yaz, Rice, Pudge. Dewey. Boggs, Clemens, Papi, Pedro and hundreds of others. But there was something special about Wake. In '03, my first thought when Boone homered wasn't about the curse, it wasn't about Grady Little, it wasn't "woe is us", it was "damn...Wake doesn't deserve this. Why him?". That man did everything the team ever asked of him and then some. He was as much a leader of the club as anyone and his true character as a human being is something men would want their children to emulate. It was like a gut punch when I saw the headline (I didn't know that Schilling had said anything). Like I said, tears in my eyes.
Rest in Peace. Sox Legend and class act. Played all my youth baseball years with his nephew Nick, we used to cheer him on like hell every time he was starting, would have his games playing on the radio in the dugout- will never forget.
Anyone who didn’t see him play, watch him over the years and learn about who the player and the man were, it’s hard to describe just how beloved Tim Wakefield was. He was the heart, the soul of not just the team but all the fans too. Had he been ANY other player to give up that Boone HR in game 7 to lose them they would have recieved the Buckner treatment (as wrong as the hate for Buckner was). But bc it was Tim, the whole city knew how crushed he was and knew he was a HUGE reason they’d even made it to that point. He came back in 04 and that season was just magical. The whole city electricity, the hunger was insatiable and the genuine guts that those guys had was just unreal.
This is really sad. He had been suffering from brain cancer for awhile. He had a seizure that was brought on by the cancer at time of death. His wife is currently fighting pancreatic cancer. My condolences goes out to his wife and family. RIP Tim...
Wake was my fav player along with Billy Mueller. for one simple reason Loyalty. Loyalty has always been huge to me as a person so when a guy stays with our team for 17 seasons he becomes a part of your everyday life. I was 16 in HS when the Sox signed him and and 33 going through the loss of my fiance to heart disease when he retired. He was part of my life just as the Sox were for a lot of good years through adulthood. It broke my heart in 03 when he gave up that HR to Boone and Wakefield took it hard like he did I still remember that interview he did with tears in his eyes and all he could say was "sorry" He understood Sox nation and knew how close we had come and didn't want to let people down...It was then that I knew Tim was a real one. You bet your ass the next year in 04 when we won (after I cried) I looked for Tim in the celebration because I wanted to see the JOY on his face after the loss the year before. At that point, he was our longest-tenured player and after all he had done for us over the years, nobody deserved it more than him. They won again in 07 and then a few years later we see Tim get his 200th win and call it a career. I shed a tear for Tek and Wake when they left as it was another watermark in life for me and the team. Here I sit at 44 learning about the passing of number 49 due to cancer while my own mom recently diagnosed with cancer herself had her first chemo treatment only to find out that her white blood cell count wasn't high enough. The chemo destroyed her because of this. She now clings to life in an ICU on a breathing machine. It's funny how life has its little parallels huh? RIP Tim you will be missed #49forever This is a truly sad day
I was a chef at a country club in Palm Bay, Florida, where Tim would hold an annual golf outing to benefit underprivileged children. He was a total class act and always had top-tier celebrities and athletes lending support. He truly gave back. A terrible tragedy that we lost this great man far too soon.
I felt so bad for him after the Aaron Boone HR that I hoped he could recover and not be remembered as another Ralph Branca. Fortunately he did come back from that and what a joy to see his contributions to that 1-derful 2004 World Series Championship Team !!! Never met him but no doubt in my mind that he was a great person. Bon Voyage Tim, now you are pitching knuckleballs for God's All Stars !!! 🥲⚾ Blessings from San Juan PR 🇵🇷
I'm not a big fan of retiring numbers... People wear my uncle's number (in a sport you've likely never seen) and commentators sometimes talk about him - there's a carrying on of a legacy if the number is worn (so long as it is). That said, there's more to cheer for on baseball field than just the star players and their stats. Retiring Tim's number would affirm that - for what he didn't have as a pitcher he had everything else - on and off the field.
Since knuckleballers gravitate towards that number for their uniform (it’s a thing for them), I’d rather they didn’t retire it, but only let a knuckleballer wear it. If he wore any other number, I’d agree 100%.
A Southern gentleman . A reliable picture for the Red Sox during their 2004 and 2007 championship teams. He will always be considered a Red Sox legend.
My stepdad grew up with Tim and his dad coached Tim in the little league in Melbourne Florida!! He was a good friend to my stepdad and to our family and he will be dearly missed
Tim Wakefield captured my imagination as a knuckleballer. The perseverance of the guys that have thrown this pitch at the mlb level can’t be matched. Tim Wakefield embodied what it is for a guy just to want to play ball at any cost. RIP Brother, you’ll be missed!
I will never forget what you've done for our beloved RedSox nation!04 was the best ever!!!Rest in peace my friend!My Uncle Durwood appreciated you showing up at the hospital when he was sick!You are a great man!!!
I'm ABSOLUTELY HEARTBROKEN 😢😢 How is it that such an amazing human being, Father, Husband, Teammate, and a Blessing to thousands, millions be taken so soon, so young, so early by this horrible cancer?? Please explain the "good" that's supposed to come from such a terrible loss?? He's always been one of my all-time favorite players of my entire 63 years of life! Then he's taken, stolen from all of us in this way! This is so difficult to understand 😪 😞 😕 Sending my love, thoughts and prayers to his Wife and two children, and to his entire family on and off the diamond! RIP YOUNG MAN! YOU MADE SUCH AN IMPACT, SUCH A DIFFERENCE TO SO MANY! YOU TRULY UNDERSTOOD UNCONDITIONAL LOVE ❤❤
An absolute Red Sox legend - both on and off the field. #49 will live on forever in the hearts of Red Sox Nation. One of the very best to ever wear the uniform.
I looked up to this guy so much. Never got to meet him. I’d go to the Tropicana field to see if I could meet him but never could. I’m a Rays fan. I never thought I’d ever comment on the Red Sox TH-cam channel. Anyways my condolences to y’all. #RIPTimwakefield #49
The world needs more Tim Wakefield's. Thank you Tim for the few times you spent with me and knowledge you gave me while you spent some time inside my college locker room. Florida Tech lost a good one.....humanity lost a great one. RIP.
From Dominican Republic and from the Botton of My Heart Rest in Peace My Dear Wakefield 😢❤! I remember 2004 Memories and thanks for your help! He was a good person 🙏🙏! God bless His family!!
A true hero on and off the field- RIP Wake. I’ll never forget him taking the ball in the mop-up situation the Sox encountered in game 3 of the 2004 ALCS at Fenway. With the Yanks “celebrating too early” he took the mound as professionally as he would in his subsequent championship work and got the job done, even with the ghost of 2003 Aaron Boone in the house. With all the BS behavior so prevalent in pro sports these days, let’s all remember a gifted, generous athlete as the role model he deserved to be.
Hmmm this didn't age well...now his wife too. Pfizer said it completed a $43 billion takeover of cancer-focused biotech company Seagen that the pharma giant said would enable it to double its oncology platform.
Legend from the field to home. I was fortunete enough to meet tim back 07 08 at local golf course.Truely a great person and a good golfer. Tim was always would help community and always will be a lengend of Brevard County Floirda.
I was never a fan because he always pitched against my team but he was the real thing. RIP Mr. Wakefield. BTW, what is it with baseball players and brain tumors??
You are not for gotten ever my greatest baseball pitcher Tim Wakefield wins championships and win World Series in Boston Massachusetts with his teammates and his team win and be a champion mvp player off the game baseball history in Boston
Yankees fan here. Watched Wakefield many times. When Boone hit that home run, I swear, my first reaction was to feel for Wakefield--he had pitched so well in that series and that game. RIP.
Tim was sooo great with that knuckle ball he pitched im 34 now and i remember like yesterday watching red Sox game and seeing him pitch soo well all the time

There will never be another knuckleballer as great as Wake, both on and off the field. Rest easy 49.
I hated it when he beat the Yankees, but he WAS a great knuckler.
Still can’t believe he’s gone. He was an incredible player and an all around good man. RIP Wake you’ll be missed. 😢

Love wake! #49 forever

A true hero on and off the field- RIP Wake. I’ll never forget him taking the ball in the mop-up situation the Sox encountered in game 3 of the 2004 ALCS at Fenway. With the Yanks “celebrating too early” he took the mound as professionally as he would in his subsequent championship work and got the job done, even with the ghost of 2003 Aaron Boone in the house. With all the BS behavior so prevalent in pro sports these days, let’s all remember a gifted, generous athlete as the role model he deserved to be.
I can't believe that day I was broken into my tears about the passing of my knuckleball pitcher in MLB. Godspeed, Wake. ♥️⚾🧢
Thank you Tim Wakefield for the memories! RIP. 🙏
What a wonderful human being he was. It's a shame he left this world at such a young age.
Just confirms that only the good die young.
I am still shocked and sad... RIP knuckleballer... lots of prayers...
Safe AND effective
Hmmm this didn't age well...now his wife too. Pfizer said it completed a $43 billion takeover of cancer-focused biotech company Seagen that the pharma giant said would enable it to double its oncology platform.
Legend from the field to home. I was fortunete enough to meet tim back 07 08 at local golf course.Truely a great person and a good golfer. Tim was always would help community and always will be a lengend of Brevard County Floirda.
I just heard. My favorite pitcher ever. Loved Nolan Ryan admired the athleticism of Roger Clemens but Wakefield is the man
I was never a fan because he always pitched against my team but he was the real thing. RIP Mr. Wakefield. BTW, what is it with baseball players and brain tumors??
You are not for gotten ever my greatest baseball pitcher Tim Wakefield wins championships and win World Series in Boston Massachusetts with his teammates and his team win and be a champion mvp player off the game baseball history in Boston
He enjoyed being a member of the Red Sox more than stepping on that mound. He was special.
Yankees fan here. Watched Wakefield many times. When Boone hit that home run, I swear, my first reaction was to feel for Wakefield--he had pitched so well in that series and that game. RIP.
My favorite Red Sox player of all time. Constant pro and even a better man
We shouldn't just be sad. It's up to y'all to stop lying to yourselves and get angry...
Tim was one of my favorite players growing up. Hos knuckleball always fascinated me
Tim was sooo great with that knuckle ball he pitched im 34 now and i remember like yesterday watching red Sox game and seeing him pitch soo well all the time
I never cared for Knuckle Ball pitchers. But I really liked him..!!!
Imagine that, the stupid pirates damn near ruined another great player. Thank goodness an actual baseball team was able to save him!
As a twins fan hee was known name for me growing up watching baseball with his nasty knucklecurve.
Didn't know that he was sick loved that guy best knuckle ball pitcher of his time
Only the good die young. RIP Tim and Stacey. Tim will forever be a Red Sox legend
Here's a guy who even if he never picked up a baseball in his life, was born and raised to be a great man!
