NEW YORK (AP) -- A bloody sock worn by Curt Schilling while pitching for the Boston Red Sox in Game 2 of the 2004 World Series against the St. Louis Cardinals was sold for $92,613 at a live auction on Saturday
night at the Fletcher-Sinclair Mansion.

 

Schilling had loaned his sock to the National Baseball Hall of Fame Museum but when his Rhode Island-based video game company "38 Studios" went bankrupt, he decided to sell the sock that was bloodied as he pitched on an injured ankle.

That's a lot of money to pay for a sock with some ketchup on it.

That wasn't even the big item in that auction.  See the NHL thread.

Rubbish. I hope a Yankee fan bought the sock and is going to burn it live on air.

Great buy for a RedSox fan! He'll have something to remember what the World Series was like for the next 80 years.

Screw sniffing it.  I'd send it to the lab and test it for HGH and Steroids.
