Monday (Anthony&#8217;s debut), I&#8217;m told, was the most viewed event in the streaming history of the NESN app, passing Opening Day this year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_c06typgqi\">This unprecedented viewership emphasizes Anthony\u2019s status as a player of intense intrigue and a beacon of hope for a Red Sox team seeking a spark in a challenging 2025 season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_rfypxvxpr\">Anthony\u2019s debut on NESN 360, the network\u2019s direct-to-consumer streaming platform, drew an 18 percent larger audience than the previous record set on Opening Day 2025, with over 80 percent of subscribers tuning in at some point during the game.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_8gwymxbx8\">There&#8217;s a ton of hype surrounding the talented Anthony, who entered the season as MLB Pipeline\u2019s No. 1 prospect. His barrage of towering home runs in Triple-A Worcester this season has had fans clamoring for his call-up.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_j6a6hyw6n\">When Wilyer Abreu landed on the injured list with an oblique strain, the Red Sox seized the opportunity, and Anthony delivered.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_6f0o08dfd\">Though he went 0-for-4 with a walk and an RBI in his debut, Anthony showed his potential the next night, lacing a two-run double for his first MLB hit in a 3-1 win over the Rays.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_v8m2kq2dw\">Anthony&#8217;s defensive miscue in the fifth inning of his debut\u2014a misplayed grounder that allowed a run\u2014was quickly overshadowed by his accountability, with manager Alex Cora praising his composure.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_duda6zkr7\">\u201cJust can\u2019t happen,\u201d Anthony\u00a0told the media, vowing to learn from the mistake.
