BOSTON -- The Boston Red Sox have permanently banned a fan from Fenway Park who used a racial slur toward another fan.
The Red Sox took the action Wednesday in the wake of Baltimore star Adam Jones being racially taunted during a game in Boston.
Jones said he was called the N-word by someone in the stands Monday night. The Red Sox apologized to Jones, as did the mayor of Boston and the governor of Massachusetts.
The Red Sox said on Tuesday night it was reported to team security that a racial slur was used by one fan toward another.
