BOSTON (CBS) — Mo Vaughn never got to experience postseason glory with the Red Sox, but the former Boston slugger is certainly soaking in the franchise’s decade of success.

Vaughn joined WBZ NewsRadio 1030’s Adam Kaufman to discuss a number of topics, including how it felt when the team finally won a World Series championship in 2004. “The Hit Dog” said that win lifted a weight not just off his shoulders, but the shoulders of anyone who had donned a Boston uniform during that 86-year title drought.

“When the Sox clinched the comeback against the Yankees, and that next week when they won the World Series, it felt like a tremendous weight was lifted off of me. I’m sure that all of us who were Sox players at the time or had any significant time with the organization, felt that release,” he said. “You heard ‘1918’ until someone could break that curse, and when it was broken in 2004, none of us had to hear that anymore. We get to talk trash, talk to Yankee fans, talk to whoever about what our organization is now.

Mo Vaughn knows why you don’t remember him. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t.

“I didn’t really take any shit from any reporters. I just basically told it like it was,” the former American League MVP told me. “And I think that overlapped what I actually did.”

I spoke to Mo about his new clothing line, MVP Collections, his success as an entrepreneur across multiple industries, and how statistically he is the best hitter in the history of the Boston Red Sox. Listen to the full interview here.

Mo Vaughn hit 33 or more home runs in six seasons during his 12-year MLB career that included the MVP award in 1995. He also had a 33 homer season back in his Little League days when he was just crushing the ball all over the park on poor souls who were facing a kid who would eventually hit 328 career homers and finish up with a .293 AVG.

Haven’t heard from Mo Vaughn in years? That’s because the guy has been busy minding his own business, including running a housing company and a trucking business outside Cleveland. Now he’s making a semi-public comeback with his MVP Collections, a clothing line for bigger guys who want clothes that are stylish and don’t look like they came from one of those dumpy big & tall stores.

Mo, 48, stopped by the Milk The Clock podcast this week to talk about his clothes and tell some old baseball stories.
