Alex Verdugo delightfully could not stop accidentally cursing during a live postgame interview
If you are the hero in extra innings, you should be allowed one free curse at the time of your choosing. Hilariously, Alex Verdugo got two after his heroics for the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday.
Verdugo helped the Red Sox beat the Minnesota Twins 5-4 with the strangest extra innings walk off ever. With runners on second and third with two outs in the bottom of the 10th, Verdugo popped a ball to deep right field that seemed to be going foul, but instead stayed in thanks to Fenway’s unique field. While the ball bounced harmlessly away from outfielder Max Kepler, the Red Sox rounded the bases for the wild extra innings win.
Seriously, this is a play you have to see to believe.
FAIR BALL!! Alex Verdugo walks it off for the Red Sox

Then, during NESN’s postgame interview after the extra innings heroics, Verdugo could not stop accidentally cursing while recounting the moment.
