August 29, 2010 - Sox vs Rays

An email from a fan by the name of T. Martinez:
Hi there,
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I love the website! Thanks for keeping it updated all the time!
After missing Tek the last time the Sox were here in Tampa (I was at the game but I thought he wasn’t), I went to the Sunday evening game against the Rays at Tropicana Field and was lucky enough to have Tek sign an “I ♥ Jason Varitek” Shirt. He’s a man of many hats out on the field. I guess that comes with being the Captain!
Before the game, he was talking on the bench with Pedroia, and then he made his way out to the group stretching near home plate. He went to the outfield and was warming up with the rest of the team, he made his way over to first base and was catching some throws from third during batting practice before Mike Lowell got there, then he headed to the bullpen where Cash was doing some drills before he came over and signed autographs and took pictures. Then he took some swings twice during batting practice.
If I had to guess, it looks like he is still favoring his foot though so hopefully it feels fully recovered soon. I’ve attached some pictures but the lights in the dome did some funny things to my camera and some of them didn’t turn out as sharp as I would have liked. Feel free to use any of them on the website if the quality is good enough.
Thanks again for the awesome website,
T. Martinez
*T, thank YOU for the great story and photos!
