Curt Schilling claps back at ‘liberal New York Yankee fans’ who think ‘Bloody Sock Game’ was staged

Fox News Flash top headlines are here. Check out what's clicking on Foxnews.com.

Curt Schilling’s most memorable moment as a pitcher in MLB has to be "The Bloody Sock Game," in which he pitched seven innings of one-run ball while bleeding from his right ankle to help the Boston Red Sox to a Game 6 victory in the 2004 ALCS. 

But there are some, mainly Yankees fans, who believe he really wasn’t bleeding. Talking on OutKick’s "Don’t @ Me with Dan Dakich," Schilling set the record straight while taking a shot at the fans who gave him hell for years in a Sox uniform. 

"It showed me how little real people understand about athletics. Most of them, 99% of them, were bitter, liberal New York Yankee fans," he said. "I get it. They choked, they lost, they sucked. Too bad. They have the tag as the biggest choke in the history of sports forever, no matter what they do."

But the Red Sox fought their way back, defeating the Yankees on their own turf in the Bronx in seven games and went on to win the World Series.
