How fans reacted to John Henry presence speaks volumes as FSG face clear Liverpool decision

As John Henry walked through the stands of Fenway Park to take his seat on Monday evening his presence was met with a chorus of boos.

Henry was at Fenway, the home of Fenway Sports Group -owned Boston Red Sox, to watch the annual NHL Winter Classic between the Boston Bruins and the Pittsburgh Penguins, the latter a team that FSG purchased for $900m back in November of 2021.

The ire of some Red Sox fans present was directed at Henry for what has been a bitterly disappointing off-season for the Red Sox as they gear up for their 2023 season, one where they saw their star player, Xander Bogaerts, depart for the San Diego Padres and where they failed to land their major targets after being outbid by their rivals.
