TORONTO — Curt Schilling, the former baseball player, has had a rough go of things. His video game business failed. He lost his job. He embarrassed himself on social media by falling for a fake news story about the Pope endorsing Donald Trump. He defended his Nazi memorabilia collection. And on Monday night, he showed just how out of touch he is with baseball today.
Schilling, you may remember from his long-ago days as a baseball player, once had a memorable moment in the ALCS. It was Game 6 in 2004 when Schilling pitched seven innings at Yankee Stadium in a 4-1 win for the Red Sox after some ketchup dripped off his pregame hot dog and splattered on his ankle, staining his uniform.
