"Ortiz had been feeling better this week, since Red Sox manager Terry Francona gave him a mental health day Sunday. His knee had been good. His outlook, too. And, certainly, his swing. "This week, these past few days, since I came back after I had the day off, I've been getting that feeling," Ortiz told WRKO Radio after last night's 11-3 win over the Rangers."
I just saw a graphic about this on ESPN. .070 prior to the unearthing for his jersey in the Yankee stadium and then like .360+ and 12 RBI after. All that curse stuff... so dumb. Good for him though.
