"I know offensively he (Jason Varitek) was the star of the game. But the game he called, I probably shook him off three times tonight. Once he wouldn't let me shake him off, but that was his game. We talked the last five days about how I thought things were going and it was good dialogue and it showed tonight results-wise. That's probably why he's probably as good as there is back there calling a game." - Curt Schilling (April 28, 2004) |
