Pedro Martinez: Manny spiked pregame shot with Viagra

excerpts culled from the book itself as well as the pitcher telling some truly unbelievable stories from his career as he promotes the co-written autobiography.

The latest — and arguably greatest — yarn Martinez has spun (or possibly ever will spin) came during a Tuesday appearance on “Late Night with Seth Meyers.” The Hall of Fame pitcher regaled the host with a tale about how Manny Ramirez added some unneeded boost to a pregame concoction the players were drinking by spiking it with … crushed-up Viagra.

Martinez claims the alleged incident occurred ahead of the Red Sox’s Game 4 showdown with the Yankees in the 2004 ALCS.
