(WATCH) Houston Astros’ Pitcher Justin Verlander Gives Phillies Fans the Middle Finger!
*NSFW – FOUL LANGUAGE* It seems like he was being a jerk, but when you watch the video and read the article, you have to respect that he was having fun with Philly fans.
“Whole interaction was in jest as all the fans around you were just saying hello in their native tongue,” Verlander tweeted several hours later. “So I responded in kind … all in good fun. I enjoyed the banter.”
