BOSTON (AP) — Pablo Sandoval was happy to be back at Fenway Park for the first time since his disastrous tenure with the Red Sox.
It was the Boston fans who weren't so happy to see him.
Booed for every at-bat, Sandoval delivered three hits and Charlie Morton retired the last 13 Red Sox he faced to lead the Atlanta Braves to a 3-1 victory over Boston on Tuesday night.
"It's one of the things I was looking forward to," said Sandoval, who was released by the Red Sox in 2017, midway through his five-year, $95 million contract.
