San Francisco Giants fans are certainly doing their part to maintain the intensity of the team’s NL West rivalries.
Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts and Padres outfielder Jackson Merrill recently dubbed home fans at Oracle Park some of the meanest in the majors. The takes came on an episode of the Los Angeles star’s podcast published Wednesday as the two discussed the kinds of heckling they hear from fans while in the outfield. As Merrill tried to recall any “creative” insults he’s gotten, he decided to give Giants fans their kudos.
“I say San Fran got some mean people out there,” Merrill said.
