A Tribute to Tek: The Captain’s Top 10
There will be plenty of space used throughout the print world and blogosphere regarding the decision to resign Jason Varitek or pursue other options behind the plate. Eventually, those opinionated pieces will dominate the headlines and RSS feeds, and ultimately, the front office will make a decision, followed by an inevitable flood of second guessing and subjective journalism.
Before that storm hit the horizon, it seemed appropriate to present a preemptive look at the captain’s most nostalgic moments with the team. Here are the top ten moments of Jason Varitek’s career with the Boston Red Sox, presented by Fire Brand of the American League. Take advantage of the comments area to give us your personal ranking and moments that didn’t make the list.
