The Boston Red Sox suspended outfielder Jarren Duran two games without pay Monday after he was heard using an anti-gay slur toward a fan during Sunday's game.
"During tonight's game, I used a truly horrific word when responding to a fan," Duran said in a statement. "I feel awful knowing how many people I offended and disappointed. I apologize to the entire Red Sox organization, but more importantly to the entire LGBTQ community. Our young fans are supposed to be able to look up to me as a role model, but tonight I fell far short of that responsibility.
