Overview

  • During the bottom of the seventh, an Apple TV+ camera on the Green Monster picked up a fan saying, “This guy literally should not even be in the league.”
  • Broadcasters Wayne Randazzo and Dontrelle Willis reacted on-air with jokes about whether the remark was aimed at them.
  • Hamilton struck out in that at-bat, went 0-for-3 with a walk, and the Yankees beat the Red Sox 4-1 as Boston managed two hits.
  • The 27-year-old has spent time between Boston and Triple-A Worcester and is hitting .200 with a .568 OPS this season.
  • Clips of the hot-mic exchange circulated widely on X, and there have been no formal responses from the Red Sox, Hamilton, Apple TV+, or MLB as of the latest reports.
