About this Article

Bidding is under way for the bloody sock worn by former Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling in the 2004 World Series, which he put up for sale after the high-profile collapse of his video game company. Chris Ivy, director of sports for Texas-based Heritage Auctions, said bidding opened at $25,000 and was up to $32,500 by Monday. Live bidding will take place in New York City on Saturday. The sock — stained when Schilling pitched on an injured ankle during the second game of the World Series that the Sox went on to win — had been on loan to the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.
