On April 10, 2024 in Boston, Massachusetts, Jackson Holliday #7 of the Baltimore Orioles struck out during the third inning of his major league baseball debut against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park. The strikeout was captured in a photo by Brian Fluharty and released by Getty Images.
Holliday expressed satisfaction with the experience, stating that it exceeded his expectations. Despite going 0-for-4 with only one RBI on a groundout, he was thrilled to be playing in a major league game with a packed stadium and high-caliber teams. He humbly acknowledged that, although he may have wished for more hits, it was an unforgettable experience.

“He derives great pleasure from playing because he genuinely loves it, and I find great delight in watching him.”
The name Ripken is highly regarded in the world of baseball. Matt has made a significant impact in the MLB record books, but it is now Jackson’s turn to solidify the Holliday family’s legacy in the sport. His younger brother Ethan is also making a name for himself as a potential draft pick in 2025, and together they have the opportunity to secure their family’s place in baseball history.
Matt chose the number 7, which was also worn by the late Ripken Sr., as his uniform number. He asked for permission from Ripken Jr. before making his decision.

Fenway Park was the stadium where Matt endured heart-wrenching defeats to the Red Sox in two World Series — one with the Colorado Rockies in 2007, and another with the Cardinals in 2013. Now, the stadium carries new meaning for him; it’s the place where he watched his oldest son suit up as an MLB player for the first time.
