Shane "The Flyin' Hawaiian" Victorino is on the move from Boston to Anaheim in a trade executed Monday that sends infielder Josh Rutledge to the Red Sox.

"I think about a guy that is maybe one of more passionate baseball players I've ever been around," Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington said of Victorino. "He played with incredible grit and was a tough, smart player, and we wish him well."

That passion showed in Victorino's farewell. As Mr. Lebowski once said, "strong men also cry."
