Timeline

2020

Pearce announced his retirement on April 13, 2020.

2018

Pearce was instrumental in Boston's 2018 World Series triumph over the Los Angeles Dodgers, displaying key outbursts of power en route to being named the World Series Most Valuable Player.

With the 2018 Blue Jays, Pearce appeared in 26 games through June 27, batting .291 (23-for-79) with four home runs and 16 RBIs.

On June 28, 2018, Pearce was traded to the Boston Red Sox for minor league infielder Santiago Espinal and $1.5M. In his MLB career, Pearce has now played for all five teams in the American League East division. The next day, Pearce went 2-for-4 in his debut game with Boston, an 8–1 loss to the rival Yankees. On August 2, in a game against the Yankees, Pearce hit three home runs and led the Red Sox in a 15–7 rout at Fenway Park. He became just the sixth player to hit three home runs in a Red Sox–Yankees game. After the game, Pearce was called the best acquisition the Red Sox made during the 2018 season. During the regular season, Pearce batted .279 for the Red Sox, with seven home runs and 26 RBIs in 50 games played.

In the 2018 World Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers, Pearce hit a game-tying solo home run off of Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen in the top of the eighth inning of Game 4. In the next inning, Pearce came up with the bases loaded and hit a base–clearing double, putting the Red Sox up 8–4 in a game they would go on to win 9–6. In Game 5, Pearce hit a two-run home run in the first inning off of former Cy Young Award winner Clayton Kershaw, and added a second home run in the eighth inning off Pedro Báez to extend the lead to 5–1. The Red Sox would go on to win the game and the series, giving Pearce his first World Series ring. He became the first Red Sox player to hit three home runs in the World Series since Carl Yastrzemski in 1967, and in three fewer games. He joined Babe Ruth and Ted Kluszewski as the only players 35 or older to have a multi-home run game in the World Series. Pearce was named World Series MVP.

On November 16, 2018, Pearce re-signed for one year and $6.25 million. He was placed on the 10-day injured list prior to Opening Day of 2019, due to a left calf injury, then activated on April 4. Pearce batted .180 in 29 games through June 1, when he was placed on the injured list due to a low back strain. He was sent on a rehabilitation assignment with the Lowell Spinners on June 14, and with the Pawtucket Red Sox on June 18. His rehabilitation assignment was stopped by the team on July 1, for what was later described as a posterior ligament injury to his knee. Pearce was moved to the 60-day injured list on August 11, and did not play again during the season, finishing with one home run and nine RBIs in the 29 games he appeared in. He became a free agent on October 31.

2017

On May 14, 2017, Pearce suffered a strained calf while sliding into second base during a game against the Seattle Mariners; forcing him to leave the game and subsequently be placed on the disabled list.

Pearce hit the third walk-off grand slam in franchise history on July 27, lifting the Blue Jays to an 8–4 victory and a four-game sweep of the Oakland Athletics. Three days later, he hit another walk-off grand slam, giving the Blue Jays an 11–10 win over the Los Angeles Angels. In doing so, Pearce became the 29th player in MLB history to hit an ultimate grand slam, and the third player to hit two walk-off grand slams in a season, joining Cy Williams and Jim Presley, who did so in 1926 and 1986 respectively. Pearce also became the first player in MLB history to hit multiple walk-off grand slams within the span of a single week. With the 2017 Blue Jays, Pearce batted .252 in 92 games, with 13 home runs and 37 RBIs.

On August 1, 2016, the Rays traded Pearce to the Orioles for Jonah Heim. With the 2016 Orioles, Pearce appeared in 25 games, batting 13-for-60 (.217) with three home runs and six RBIs.
