The incident occurred during the eighth inning after Duran grounded out to first base, finishing off an 0-for-4 day at the plate with two strikeouts. Earlier in the game, Duran broke his bat by slamming it on the on-deck circle after he struck out in the third inning.

While walking toward the dugout, he began trading remarks with a spectator. Red Sox players saw the commotion and pointed out a fan to security. The fan in question was addressed by a security guard and was eventually removed from the game.

Asked about the incident afterward, Duran spoke to reporters for less than 30 seconds, repeatedly saying “Nothing happened.”
