During Sunday’s airing of the “30 for 30” documentary “Four Days in October,” which chronicles the Boston Red Sox’s four-game comeback against the New York Yankees in the 2004 ALCS, ESPN edited out a pretty famous part of the story: Curt Schilling’s Game 6 start, also known as “the bloody sock game,” was mysteriously missing, according to Big League Stew.

The feud between ESPN and former employee Curt Schilling may be to blame, according to the Stew. Schilling was fired by the network in April for expressing his opinion on social media that people use the restroom that corresponds to their biological sex. Shortly after being let go, Schilling accused the station of bias and said they employ some of the most racist people he’s ever met.

Boston Globe reporter Chad Finn noticed the edit of the “30 for 30” documentary and reached out to ESPN for an explanation. According to a statement by the network, it was due to a time crunch.

“When a live event runs long, it’s standard procedure to shorten a taped program that follows. In this case, we needed to edit out one of the film’s four segments to account for the extra length of the softball game.”

Criticizing previous ESPN editing choices as well as their latest decision to edit out his Game 6 contribution, Schilling tweeted out May 1, “Wow, full one year complete fabrication to defame greatest QB, now omitting about 4 hours of a game I think I played in. Hmm #integritymuch?”
