Curt Schilling Tweets Old Photo of Bloody Sock Ankle

Wow.

Curt Schilling's performance in Game 6 of the 2004 ALCS quickly became the stuff of legend because of the incredible amount of pain that Schilling was in through those seven gritty innings. Some people have questioned the truth of the "bloody sock game," so Schilling dug up a photo of the surgically repaired ankle. Shield your eyes if you're squeamish.

We're used to seeing Tommy John scars, but this is on another level.
