Trivia

  • While it may sound like he is being booed when Youkilis takes the plate, or makes a big hit at Fenway Park, Boston fans are actually cheering "Yoooooouk!"
  • Youkilis played his first major league game on May 15, 2004. After he hit a home run on his debut, as a prank, his teammates in the dugout stayed on their benches and ignored this feat. Youkilis proceeded to the dugout and hit imaginary high-fives until his teammates gave in and congratulated him.
