Willson Contreras has been a great addition for the Boston Red Sox this season, but there have been a couple of instances when he has been booed by the fans.
On Aug. 8, he was booed for not running hard on a ground ball, and the same thing happened in the 10th inning of Wednesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Contreras hit a ground ball to third base as the second batter of the tenth inning and did not run hard to beat it out, resulting in the second out but a run scoring.
He put his hand to his ear on his way back to the dugout as some fans booed him. He stood by his decision to take it easy down the first base line, pointing to his leg injury as the reason why.
Despite the boos, Contreras stands firm on his belief that Boston is the right city for him to be playing baseball in.
