Milwaukee Brewers reliever Josh Hader was booed by San Francisco Giants fans when he entered Thursday night's game at AT&T Park in the sixth inning.
The reception represented a 180-degree shift from the warm welcome Hader received at Miller Park in Milwaukee after his old racist and homophobic tweets circulated during the All-Star Game on July 17.

"I'm not expecting that everybody is going to forgive me early, but I just hope people see my true character today, and show them that’s not who I was," Hader said after he was greeted by cheers from the Milwaukee crowd last week, according to USA Today's Bob Nightengale.
