Fans at Fenway Park on Tuesday evening gave Baltimore Orioles center fielder Adam Jones a standing ovation a day after he was subjected to racial slurs during Monday night's 5-2 win over the Boston Red Sox.
Major League Baseball's Twitter account relayed video of the crowd rising to its feet as Jones stepped into the batter's box in the first inning:

Following Monday's victory, Jones told reporters a fan threw a bag of peanuts at him and that he was "called the N-word a handful of times," according to USA Today's Bob Nightengale.
