During the Boston Red Sox World Series victory parade, they made a stop at the Boston Marathon finish line to remember the tragedy and show their respect. The Red Sox helped the city of Boston heal following the tragic attacks and the “Boston Strong” motto that came from those tough times stuck with the team throughout the season.

Now that the season is over, the Red Sox are showing that they still remember those horrible events.

The team placed their trophies on the finish line and posed with the Boston Strong jerseys, which provided some very touching moments.
