The Red Sox cruised to an easy win over the Guardians on Sunday, but the series win was briefly marred by the worst kind of fan behavior.
As part of the Netflix docuseries “The Clubhouse: A Year With the Red Sox,” outfielder Jarren Duran opened up about his suicide attempt in 2022. He said that he wanted to share his story in order to help others. Yet, before the seventh inning at Progressive Field, someone in the crowd evidently weaponized that revelation in order to heckle the outfielder.
Duran understandably reacted because, well, he’s human. Umpires and the Red Sox coaching staff had to intervene to hold Duran back.

To the credit of the Guardians fans seated in the section, they all pointed out the fan to stadium security. According to the broadcast, that fan was ejected because the remarks clearly crossed a line.

There’s no excuse to speak to someone like that. Duran would stay in the game and tack on an RBI double in the ninth inning.
