Tek’s All-Star Gear takes a road trip to the Hall of Fame but he can’t part with his Baby!

Jason Varitek now holds the Major League record for no-hitters caught. Last night Tek was honored for his history-making 4th no-hitter caught. His All-Star catcher’s gear has been authenticated and is being sent to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown.

During the interview, Tek told the reporter that after they took his gear they asked him if they could take his All-Star catcher’s mitt (CM3000BT). He would not let them take it! Here is the expression on his face when he was asked to consider parting with his mitt.
