Everyone's doing the Bloody Sock
"Curt Schilling donated the bloody sock he wore during Game 2 of the World Series to the Hall of Fame on Thursday.... Schilling had surgery Nov. 9 to repair a ruptured tendon sheath on his right ankle. The injury appeared to end his season in the middle of Boston's World Series run, but team doctors, in an unprecedented procedure, made a wall of stitches in Schilling's ankle to keep the tendon in place. Schilling, with blood seeping through his sock, won Game 6 in the AL championship series against the New York Yankees and Game 2 of the World Series." (USA Today, 11feb2005)
