Jarren Duran Directs Obscene Gesture Toward Fan at Minnesota and Says Fan Told Him to Kill Himself
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) โ Red Sox outfielder Jarren Duran directed an obscene gesture toward a fan at Target Field as he returned to the dugout after a fifth-inning groundout inย Boston's 6-0 lossย to the Minnesota Twins on Tuesday night.
Duran, who has spoken about his past struggles with mental health, said a fan made a personal comment that crossed the line.
"Somebody just told me to kill myself," Duran said. "I'm used to it at this point, you know? I mean, (expletive) happens. I mean, I'm gonna flip somebody off if they say something to me, but it is what it is. I shouldn't react like that, but that kind of stuff is still kind of triggering."

Duranย discussed bouts with severe depression and a suicide attemptย in a Netflix series that debuted last year.
"Honestly, it's my fault for talking about my mental health because I kind of brought in the haters. So I've just got to get used to it," Duran said. "I was just trying to hold it in and not really bring that up to the team. I mean, we're trying to win a game. I shouldn't even bring that up to anybody. ... It just happens."
Boston manager Alex Cora said he didn't witness the incident and hadn't reviewed video of it.
