Yesterday I had a post on how important Thanksgiving 2003 was to the Red Sox, today Curt Schilling writes his version of what happened on that day. Another note on Schilling is that he is writing for WEEI.com full time foregoing his own blog 38pitches.com.
Read more...Thanksgiving 5 years ago marked one of the most important events in Red Sox history. Theo went to Arizona that November day in 2003, he gave up time with his family to eat with the Schillings and convince Curt that he could be part of something special.
"If we didn't sign Curt, it probably would have been the worst Thanksgiving of my life," Epstein said. "We tried to refuse, and Curt said it was a deal-breaker, they would be insulted if we didn't go."
5. June 7th- Curt Schilling's dominant near no-hitter in Oakland ending a 4 game losing streak.
4. May 13th- Mother's Day Miracle. Sox score 6th in the bottom of the 9th to beat the O's 6-5.
3. Sept. 2nd- Clay Buchholz's no-hitter after being called up from Pawtucket.
2. Oct. 5th- Manny's Walk-off HR to give the Sox a 2-0 series lead in the ALDS
1. April 20th- Manny, Lowell, J.D., and Tek back to back to back to back HR's against the Yankees.
