The gifts just keep rolling in for David Ortiz.
After receiving a sparkling new Mercedes from the Boston Red Sox front office earlier this week, the retired slugger was given a slightly more prestigious gift Saturday when he was awarded the key to the city of Miami.

While Ortiz didn't have much of a connection to the city throughout his playing career, the 40-year-old now permanently resides in Miami following his retirement.
