Millar reveals Red Sox did shots before games
The Red Sox are still savoring their first World Series championship in 86 years, but one Boston player revealed the team didn't save the drinking for the celebratory champagne.

Appearing on Fox Sports Net's Best Damn Sports Show Period, Kevin Millar said the team did shots of Jack Daniels before Games 6 and 7 of the ALCS against the Yankees. And then after winning those games, continued the practice in the World Series for good luck.
"Before starting Game 6 (of the ALCS). It was about 35 degrees out there at Yankee Stadium," Millar said. "I went around and got a thing of Jack Daniels and we all did shots of Jack Daniels about 10 minutes before the game. And we won Game 6. So Game 7 of course, we had to do shots of Jack Daniels. And we won Game 7, so guess what? I'm glad we won in Game 4 (in the World Series) because these Crown Royal shots and Jack Daniels shots started to kill me. And that's how the Sox did it.

"Can you imagine (manager) Terry Francona taking a shot of Crown Royal before Game 4 of the World Series? It's out there now, baby — we were drunk."

2. I highly doubt that was the case
You trying hitting a 95 mile per hour ball, then try hitting it tipsy.

4. Millar hit like it
Come to think of it, that's about when Millar stopped hitting.
