Year of the Sox

This is the best quote I’ve heard in a while (from future Sox captain Dustin Pedroia about David Ortiz):

“David’s fine. He’s one of our teammates. We believe in him.

He’s going to come out of it. He’s had 60 at-bats. A couple of years ago I had 60 at-bats and it was me hitting .170 and everybody was ready to kill me, too.

Then what happened?
