Legends Territory Doug Mientkiewicz Part 2 - the REAL story behind the Red Sox curse-breaking ball, Derek Jeter behind closed doors, scouting Pete Alonso out of college and did the Twins develop Byron

Part II of a wild conversation with Doug Mientkiewicz features a fiery battle between Doug & Red Sox ownership over control of the 2004 World Series winning baseball. The 2001 Gold Glove winner has more on what former teammate Derek Jeter was like when the cameras stopped rolling. Doug tells hosts Scott Braun and A.J. Pierzynski about how he developed the current stars of the Minnesota Twins and their front office screwed up proper development of players he mentored like Byron Buxton. He also reveals why the club had a near-miss in drafting New York Mets homerun smasher Pete Alonso. More from Doug on joining "the idiots" in Boston includes the moment he thought he was traded for Nomar Garciaparra and the circus that was the Sox clubhouse (shots before games to handle adversity).
