## Resource

Curtis Mead, Australia’s rising baseball star, is making waves with the Boston Red Sox after a journey that defied expectations — from dodging his dad’s Aussie Rules Football push to becoming the first Australian position player to hit and drive in a run in the postseason. Signed by the Phillies, traded to the Rays, and then the Nationals, Mead battled early struggles, turned his defense into a strength, and rebuilt his power at the plate — all leading to his Red Sox debut and a bright future as part of Australia’s baseball boom.
