Jacoby Ellsbury changed his jersey number from 46 to 2. He says he's always worn this number since he was young but as a rookie in the Red Sox, he was too shy to ask bench coach Brad Mills for it. On October 27, 2009, Mills was named manager of the Houston Astros so # 2 became available. Jacoby requested the change and got it.

He always wanted number 2. Brad Mills, the bench coach had number 2 and now he is gone.
