Dorchester’s Jane Richard sang the National Anthem at Fenway Park last Friday before a game against the New York Yankees that included a pre-game salute to former Red Sox MVP second baseman and three-time World Series champion Dustin Pedroia. After belting out a spectacular rendition of the “Star-Spangled Banner,” Jane and her parents, Bill and Denise Richard, and her older brother Henry greeted an emotional Pedroia near the Fenway mound.

Just before Jane sang and received a hug from Pedroia, the Fenway scoreboard displayed a photo of her brother Martin, who was killed at age 8 in the same terrorist bombing that robbed Jane of her leg eight years ago. A huge Red Sox fan, Martin was shown wearing a Sox jersey with Pedroia’s number 15.
