Sock it to me
By now, you’ve probably read that Gary Thorne believes Curt Schilling’s bloody sock from the 2004 ALCS was a hoax.
Other revelations Thorne has planned for slow moments in this season’s baseball broadcasts:
Rollie Fingers’ mustache was fake.
Jorge Orta was safe.
Chris Sabo’s rec-specs were not prescribed. They were window glass. He just wore them to dispel the notion that nerds can’t play baseball.
The Clue Heywood character in Major League was not based on Steve Balboni. Any resemblance is pure coincidence.
Cal Ripken Jr.’s ironman streak was accomplished with the aid of cloning.
Barry Bonds never used steroids.
