Tiffany Ortiz has kept fans updated on Big Papi’s health, and fortunately the news seems to be getting better and better. Ortiz was shot in the back and the bullet exited through his stomach, so it goes without saying that he is fortunate to be alive. He underwent extensive surgery in the Dominican Republic before being transferred to Boston.
Police in the Dominican Republic have released some details about the attack on Ortiz, but the case remains under investigation.
