21 years ago today: Varitek vs. A-Rod 🍿

To this day I’m convinced if A Rod signed with the Red Sox we would still have not won a World Series since 1918.

Varitek is Legend. Arod is a douche.

21 years ago today: Jason Varitek fights with a mask on, scratches A Rod’s face and gets put into a headlock before it gets broken up🍿

Bill Mueller walkoff HR!

I’m not a violent person, but I enjoyed watching a rod meet our captain. This was a good day. This was the year. I watched every single game with my father so we could bond over baseball and he could teach me about the game. What a year to watch every game. thank you, Red Sox.

Happy anniversary!

I was there. One of the best and most exciting games games I've ever seen. Dropkick Murphys play Tessie for first time at Fenway in center field before the game, ARod V-Tek scuffle, Bill Mueller walk off 2 run HR off Mariano Rivera in the 9th. Simply awesome game.

that was fun 💪😍 lol Tek, love it!

I miss when these sorts of rivalries really meant something. I usually only watch my teams but I'd def sit down and watch a yankees/red sox game back then. You couldn't pay me to watch a Yankees/Red Sox game now.

A-rod was a whiny bitch.

@Accordion617 Yep my 23rd birthday and then people forget Bill Mueller had a walk off off Mariano to win that game foreboding of what was to come in October

Good times … like Pedro and Zimmer

@soxbats And ARod is still flapping his gums. And people still listen. Why? 🤷🏼

The fact 21 years ago wasn’t in the 1900s boggles my mind.

You mispelt Gay-Rod

Damn this memory old enough to drink 😭😭😭

It’s crazy how likable A-Rod is now, he was such a punk as a Yankee.

I was in circuit city in seekonk with my mom seeing this on 10+ TVs

You got your ass kicked @AROD . Go Sox

Varitek is a coward, couldn’t take his mask off before he wanted to throw hands. Fake tough guy pussy.

"We don't throw at .260 hitters"

As if we didn't love Tek enough, he does this, and that was it. Hall of Fame, nothing less.

When real baseball was played

Varitek leaves his mask on 🙄🙄

Loved Varietek cold cocking A- Fraud!

I’m just waiting for Duran to just beat the shit out of literally any yankees player that looks at him wrong

I was at this game. Awesome day! Concluded will a Bill Mueller walk off HR.

The good ol days.

Fuck A Rod

Love the old Yankees Red Sox rival. 👊

ARod loses fight, Red Sox win two out of the next four World Series and the Yankees haven’t won since.

Effing with Varitek is a choice

You can see that blistering steroid rage coming off of A-Rod
