In the latest case, Curt Schilling helped a fan with his “Go Fund Me”. Schilling, who has been through a lot in his life too, understood the nature of the request and fulfilled it. A Twitter user named Merica Madness shared the complete case on his account. The caption of the post read, “When superstar Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling RT?s your Gofund me campaign. You?ve made it. What a HOF pitcher and stand up guy He?s such an idol of mine. Him and his bloody sock.”

Curt Schilling’s response came to the original post in which Merica appealed for donations. The campaign focuses on raising awareness and money for a family affected by a fire, who lost their house and their belongings to the accident. The user shared their case with a request, “They lost EVERYTHING in a fire yesterday. No insurance. They?re homeless in a motel now. Patriots, I need your help. If you can?t donate, PLEASE RT RT RT.”? ?

His record with the Boston Red Sox puts him in a different class. He helped the team win two World Series titles. The 2004 win was special because he played with an injury and gave his all to help the team win the championship. The former Red Sox player’s socks actually turned red because of the soaking of blood during the Game 6 performance, as the reference came as “the bloody sock.” The legend finished the 2004 season with a record in his first season in Boston after he knocked up over 20 wins.
