On Monday night, Baltimore Orioles outfielder Adam Jones was subjected to some inexcusable racist behavior by the Fenway Park crowd . In addition to having a bag of peanuts thrown at him, Jones also had multiple racial epithets tossed his way.
The Boston Red Sox responded to the incidents by issuing a public apology on Tuesday. Here's what the team said:
"The Red Sox want to publicly apologize to Adam Jones and the entire Orioles organization for what occurred at Fenway Park Monday night. No player should have an object thrown at him on the playing field, nor be subjected to any kind of racism at Fenway Park.
