MLB Twitter reacts to Yankees fans booing Aaron Hicks during game vs Orioles: "Classless as usual"

Upon Aaron Hicks' return to Yankee Stadium as a player for the Baltimore Orioles on Monday, the New York Yankees paid homage to him with a tribute video. Despite spending a considerable portion of eight years with the New York Yankees and establishing long-term relationships within the organization, Yankees fans were quick to point out that Hicks did not make any significant contributions to the franchise deserving of a tribute video. Aaron Hicks faced a chorus of boos during pregame introductions, once more during his initial at-bat, and yet again when a tribute video played in the second innings. The boos persisted throughout each of his three subsequent plate appearances as the Orioles suffered a 6-3 defeat against the Yankees.

Over the course of 27 games, he has maintained an impressive batting average of .262 along with an OPS of .838. The Orioles recognize the value of Hicks' experience and defensive skills, which make him a valuable asset to their outfield. Despite his recent underwhelming performances, the team remains optimistic that a change of environment will spark a resurgence of his potential. The Orioles' decision to sign Hicks presents him with a chance to rejuvenate his career and make a meaningful impact on a team that has surpassed predictions this season. With a remarkable 34-20 record, the Orioles currently stand second in the AL East, trailing the Tampa Bay Rays by just four games.
