Boston Red Sox outfielder Jarren Duran was suspended for two games games by Major League Baseball on Monday after he uttered an anti-gay slur at a fan during the team's loss Sunday to the Houston Astros.
In the sixth inning of Boston's game Sunday at Fenway Park, Duran turned around in the middle of an at-bat and said to a heckler: "Shut up, you f---ing f----t."
Duran, 27, apologized in a statement Sunday night for using "a truly horrific word when responding to a fan."
The suspension is in line with MLB's past discipline for the use of anti-gay slurs.
