Curt Schilling was one of the better pitchers for quite a few years in MLB, and he was famous for the bloody sock from the 2004 American League Championship Series against the Yankees. There have been quite a few people who have doubted the validity of whether or not the sock was actually soaked with blood, but Schilling took an extra step to prove it on Twitter.

Needless to say, this picture is not going to be for those who are queasy when they see nasty scars or injuries. That being said, it does prove that Schilling was being straight up and honest with the fans when he claimed that it was blood. It’s crazy to think that he was able to play with an injury like that, but it just shows how tough he was.

Take a look at the photo that Schilling posted below:

Perhaps now the haters that have been saying that the “blood” was simply ketchup can back off and believe the story that Schilling has stood by. That photo is certainly not a fake, but there are likely some that will say that it isn’t actually of his foot and ankle.

Either way, it’s a nasty injury and helps explain what actually happened to create the bloody sock.
