BOSTON — David Price makes his first appearance at Fenway Park on Tuesday night since his verbal tirade aimed at a reporter last Wednesday at Yankee Stadium.
Price, whose obscenity-laced rant was part of his announcement that he will only talk after he pitches, was hammered by the Yankees a night after his odd clubhouse encounter with the reporter and others in the Red Sox media.
On Tuesday, Price (1-1, 5.29 ERA) faces the Philadelphia Phillies and rookie Ben Lively (1-1, 2.57 ERA) in the second half of the Boston’s home portion of the four-game, home-and-home series.
