What Happened

In the bottom of the eighth inning, with the score tied 3-3, Boston Red Sox outfielder J.D. Martinez struggles to field a fly ball in right field due to the sun being in his eyes. The ball drops for a double, allowing the New York Yankees' Gleyber Torres to reach second base. Later in the inning, Torres hits another fly ball to right field. Martinez runs after the ball, but instead of attempting to catch it, he reaches towards the stands, accidentally making contact with a female fan's chest. The shocked fan reacts with dismay, exclaiming "Oh my god, wow!" as Martinez quickly pulls his hand away. "I knew the Boston fans were a little rude, but I didn't expect the players to assault me," the fan says. However, the incident appears to be unintentional, with Martinez simply losing his balance while trying to grab the railing for support as he ran after the ball. After the play, the commentators discuss the awkward moment, with one saying, "This one was Squints Apparel... of course it was." They acknowledge that while the contact was inappropriate, it was likely an honest mistake and not an intentional act of assault. The game remains tied 3-3 as the inning continues. Both the Red Sox and Yankees are fighting for position in the highly competitive American League East division, adding to the intensity of the rivalry. J.D. Martinez, a key offensive contributor for the Red Sox, will look to make up for the defensive miscue and fan interaction as the game progresses.
