News about Jarren Duran

Sales of Jarren Duran's jersey have surged after the Red Sox star was caught using a homophobic slur at a fan. On Sunday, Duran was heard on a hot mic calling a fan a 'f*****g f****' while at the plate. And while he was suspended two games without pay by his team, his regrettable words have actually won him over with many fans.

Boston Red Sox outfielder Jarren Duran has apologized after he was heard directing a homophobic slur towards a fan during Sunday's defeat to the Houston Astros. Duran, who was named to his first MLB All-Star team last month, was caught on a hot mic shouting to the heckling spectator at Fenway Park: 'Shut up you f***ing f*****'. One day on from the incident, the 27-year-old has issued an apology through the Red Sox, admitting he failed as a role model for young supporters.

Red Sox outfielder Jarren Duran was caught on a hot mic directing a homophobic slur at a heckling fan as Boston dropped a third straight game to the visiting Houston Astros on Sunday. 'Shut up you f***ing f*****,' Duran was heard saying on NESN's broadcast. The NESN booth either did not hear the expletive or simply ignored it. Play-by-play announcer Dave O'Brien simply told the audience that 'Duran at .296 with runners in scoring position for the year.' Duran, a first-year All-Star in 2024, has since apologized.

Liam Hendricks returned to the majors after winning the White Sox's bizarre victory over the Detroit Tigers on Saturday. Yoán Moncada scampered home on a 10th-inning wild pitch that knocked out umpire Cory Blaser, bringing the Chicago White Sox to a 2-1 victory. Hendriks pitched a 1-2-3 seventh inning in his second game of the season after recovering from stage 4 non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Fernando Tatis Jr. is back with the San Diego Padres, bringing his trademark flair to the game of baseball. He's also returned with a hint of humility. For the first time since an 80-game PED suspension that shocked and enraged his teammates, administrators, and a fan base, the 24-year-old is playing in a regular season game on Thursday. The Arizona Diamondbacks will leadoff and play right field. 'It's like my first game in the big leagues - those nerves have sparked again,' Tatis said before the game. 'Just happy to be here, and grateful for the opportunity.' We have a long way to go, so we can't wait to contribute.'

Kenta Maeda was expected to miss Thursday's game at Fenway Park, but the Minnesota pitcher first had to record an out. In the second inning of the Twins' 11-5 loss to the Red Sox on Thursday, the right-hander took a 111 mph line off his left ankle. He staggered himself with his hands and then pounced on the ball to bring Boston batter Jarren Duran for the third out. Maeda stumbled onto his back and rolled onto his side as he rolled onto his side.

Jarren Duran, a Boston Red Sox centerfielder, had an inning to forget in Kansas City on Sunday. Duran did not only lose two catchable fly balls, but he also found himself bickering with Royals fans seated in the Kauffman Stadium bleachers during Boston's 15-3 loss on Sunday. And if the bottom of the seventh innings wasn't quite tumultuous enough, he did a good job with a diving grab during the game. Nate Eaton of Kansas City sprung up to center, where Duran appeared to lose the ball in the sun. Duran, who had been trying to shield himself from the glare, watched as the ball fell directly to his left and was forced to throw from his knees to prevent Eaton from scoring on the play. Kyle Isbel of the Royals kept a fastball to the warning track for the next at-bat. Duran seemed to be able to make a jump catch in front of the wall, but the ball deflected off his glove, resulting in a triple. Duran regained his diving catch on a fly ball from Royals catcher MJ Melendez, but Isbel was able to tag up and score on the game. Duran seemed to be getting better until he started bickering with supporters in the bleachers and then had to be escorted by right fielder Alex Verdugo.
