It was strange to see Jason Varitek get emotional at yesterday's press conference. Not that I think the man is an android, but...okay, well, at times you may have been able to fool me. He has always seemed so impenetrable, so macho, that seeing his eyes welling up with tears and watching him struggle to compose himself had a Twilight Zone feeling about it.
I already posted when news broke a couple days ago that he was going to retire, but it seems wrong not to mark the Captain's official goodbye with a post, so below, a look back through photos and blog snippets dedicated to Tek.
