Red Sox manager John Farrell delivered the perfect retort in response to a heckling fan who questioned his decision making during the team’s most recent game against the New York Yankees.
The fan questioned Farrell’s lineup, and wondered why there weren’t as many of the team’s normal starters out there, especially with how close the race for the No. 2 seed in the American League is.
Farrell didn’t have time for that nonsense, so he shut the fan up quickly with a pretty direct response.
“Why don’t you shut your ass up?” the Red Sox manager said.

Farrell clearly was not interested in hearing it from the fan during the game, and understandably so.
