Red Sox Rookie Andrew Benintendi Shouts Out Waltham Auto Body Shop

The Boston phenom took to Twitter Wednesday to thank Lou's Custom Exhaust for doing work on his car.

WALTHAM, MA – A local auto body shop has one high profile fan, and Red Sox fans hope he's around long enough to become a repeat customer.

Andrew Benintendi, the rookie outfielder called up from Portland in August, took to Twitter Wednesday to shoutout Lou's Custom Exhaust on Bacon Street after the shop did work on his car.

Benintendi made quite a splash with the Sox in the immediate weeks following his debut, but was briefly sidelined by a knee sprain in late August.
