Fox’ producers decided to return to the scene of the crime Tuesday, opting to once again host their postgame show on Jersey Street. Since the Red Sox fell to Houston 9-2, the crowd was more muted than the raucous group that caused Fox to mute the audio after Game 3.
But they still got in some good A-Rod mocking. The lingering Sox fans followed up the previous night’s “F— you A-Rod” chants with a slightly more PG version: “A-Rod sucks.”
A-Rod, to his credit, doesn’t appear to mind the mockery taking place behind him. If he was perturbed, one has to imagine Fox would’ve moved the location of its set.
Though it wasn’t surprising to hear more vitriol directed towards A-Rod, the crowd also turned its collective sights on the President of the United States. “F— Joe Biden” chants rang out later in the show, and weirdly, Fox didn’t decide to mute the audio this time. (Biden won Massachusetts by roughly 35 points and Suffolk County by 63.4 points.)
With Game 5 set to begin at 5:08 p.m., there’s a possibility that today’s crowd could be even rowdier, especially if the Red Sox win. Since the game should end well before midnight, there will be plenty of time for post-game galavanting and barhopping.
It would only make sense for fans to stop at the Fox set one more time on their way out.
