WESTON, Mass. — Former Boston Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz is cleaning house, and you might be surprised by what he's selling.
The man known to Red Sox fans as Big Papi is, of course, selling tons of memorabilia from his baseball career at an estate sale scheduled for Saturday at his home in the affluent Boston suburb of Weston. But he is also selling other odds and sundry, including a neon Rolls Royce sign, a backyard composter and a stone owl sculpture.

“In addition to some exceptional sports memorabilia, you'll find beautiful furniture and decor, designer ladies clothing and accessories, gym equipment, game room tables and more," the company running the sale said on its website.
