Fox MLB Broadcast Drowned Out By 'F Altuve' and 'A-Rod Sucks' Chants in Boston
The Boston Red Sox destoryed the Houston Astros, 12-3, on Monday night as they took a 2-1 lead in the ALCS. The game took place in Boston and the FOX crew was on location which made the postgame show quite difficult to broadcast.

You can’t really hear a word the Fox crew is saying but atmosphere makes you feel the playoffs.

There was that touching moment where David Ortiz got a rousing ovation from the Boston faithful, but then they resorted to chanting "A-Rod sucks" and "f-ck Altuve." The latter caused FOX to have to mute their analysts mics.

It's an incredible atmosphere if you're a fan, but to try and work in those conditions seems less than ideal.
