Suddenly, 56,135 fans were going batty. Everyone was on their feet. Well, almost everyone. Donald Trump, who watched the game from owner George Steinbrenner's private box, remained seated. Maybe he didn't want to mess up his nice hair. Maybe he knew the Red Sox were going to tighten up the game in the seventh and eighth innings.
As Schilling readied to throw his next pitch, the crowd began chanting, `Who's Your Daddy? . . . Who's Your Daddy?"
That was an obvious jab at Pedro Martinez, who famously called the Yankees his "daddy" after they beat him in Fenway Park in September.
Wednesday night, the Red Sox will look to Martinez to even the series. He's fully capable of dialing up a gem. But given his recent struggles against the Yankees - and his defeatist "daddy" remark - there's no telling what the Red Sox might get.
Martinez can expect to get an earful from the Yankee fans. The "Who's Your Daddy?" chant was loud Tuesday night, and it will be louder tonight.
