Later, he added, “ECK needs attention

When he got to Fenway Park on Wednesday, Price asked to speak to reporters and took off on Eckersley.

“Honestly, I just think it’s trash. He had an unbelievable career and he’s a Hall of Famer,” Price said. “I saw his special on MLB Network. It was cool. The one thing that stood out to me was that he had zero former teammates in that interview. Not one talking about him. It was him talking about himself.

“If anybody ever does a special on me after baseball, I won’t need to go on that interview. I will have former teammates. I will have former coaches. He didn’t have that. To me, that’s all you need to know. That tells the story right there.”

Price, who is in the fourth year of a seven-year, $217 million contract, has had a testy relationship with Boston fans.
