Adam Jones will not 'let up' on calls to MLB for tougher rules against racist behavior, agent says

Adam Jones' agent says the Orioles outfielder will not "let up" on his call for Major League Baseball and its teams to eliminate racially intolerant behavior from fans at stadiums.

Jones' agent, Nez Balelo, released a statement to Fox Sports on Wednesday, two days after Jones said he heard racial taunts during the Orioles' game in Fenway Park against the Boston Red Sox.

"We are not going to let up on this one until we see implemented policies put in place in every city to protect these players and stop this type of reckless behavior," Balelo said in his statement.
