Marlins' Dane Myers heckled at Fenway before hitting key HR

BOSTON -- Marlins right fielder Dane Myers felt like a fan at Fenway Park was heckling him beyond what was appropriate, verbal abuse that began before he hit a tying homer in the ninth inning to help Miami rally past the Boston Red Sox on Sunday.

Myers said the heckling began in the eighth when the Red Sox led 3-2 and continued in the ninth, after he homered and rookie Jakob Marsee followed with a two-run shot to put the Marlins on top.

"Maybe so," he said when asked if the fan said something inappropriate.
