Mandatory Credit: Daniel Kucin Jr.-Imagn Images<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Jarren Duran seemingly hit a routine groundball to second base during Tuesday\u2019s game vs. the Minnesota Twins at Target Field. Duran was put out on a simple play and began to make his way back to the Boston Red Sox dugout. But as Duran jogged past the Twins\u2019 dugout, a quick middle finger popped up. He had flipped off a fan just behind the netting.<\/p>\n<p>At the time, the NESN broadcast did not pick up on the occurrence. Social media does not miss much, though, as the clip began to go viral. You can check out the full moment for yourself here.<\/p>\n<p>Duran was asked about the moment during his postgame press conference. Turns out, the fan Duran directed the middle finger at told him \u201cto kill myself.\u201d He defended the action before admitting a better reaction should have come.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSomebody just told me to kill myself,\u201d Duran said via Christopher Smith of MassLive. \u201cI\u2019m used to it at this point. I mean, (expletive) happens. I mean, I\u2019m gonna flip somebody off if they say something to me. But it is what it is. I shouldn\u2019t react like that. But that kind of stuff is still kind of triggering. So it happens.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Duran has been open about his battle with mental health in recent times. He revealed a suicide attempt in a docuseries done about the Red Sox back in 2025. This has been something Boston has supported him through. A statement from team president and CEO Sam Kennedy even came ahead of the docuseries\u2019 premiere.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJarren\u2019s decision to share his story is an act of courage that reaches far beyond baseball,\u201d Kennedy said last April. \u201cBy opening up, he\u2019s showing others who may be struggling that they\u2019re not alone and that asking for help isn\u2019t just OK, it\u2019s essential. Every member of this organization continues to stand with him. He has our deepest admiration, he\u2019s always had our full support and we\u2019re incredibly fortunate to have him as part of our team.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a1.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F0428%2Fr1485005_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"Fan ejected in Cleveland for taunting Red Sox's Jarren Duran - ESPN\" \/><\/p>\n<p>At the time of posting, there has been nothing issued by the Red Sox on the matter. Nor the Twins, who were the home team on Tuesday night, the second of a three-game series.<\/p>\n<p>Duran finished hitless in four at-bats, continuing his tough start to the 2025 season. Boston lost the game 6-0, bringing their overall record to 6-11 \u2014 enough to place them in last place of the AL East.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(16) looks on during the first inning against the Baltimore Orioles at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.
