List of Boston Red Sox Hall of Famers

This is a list of Boston Red Sox players who have been inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. The Boston Red Sox are a professional baseball team based in Boston, Massachusetts, and are the reigning 2007 World Series Champions. The Red Sox are a member and current champions of both the Major League Baseball’s American League Eastern Division and of the American League itself. From Baseball Year|1912 to the present, the Red Sox have played in Fenway Park.

The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, located at 25 Main Street in Cooperstown, New York, is a museum operated by private interests serving as the central point for the study of the history of baseball in the United States and beyond, the display of baseball-related artifacts and exhibits, and the honoring of persons who have excelled in playing, managing, and serving the sport. The Hall's motto is "Preserving History, Honoring Excellence, Connecting Generations".

The word Cooperstown is often used as shorthand (or a metonym) for the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, just as the expression "Hall of Fame" is understood to mean the "National Baseball Hall of Fame".

Jeff Idelson is the acting president since March 25, 2008, when Dale Petroskey was forced to resign for "fail [ing] to exercise proper fiduciary responsibility" while making "judgments that were not in the best interest of the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum."
