Boston Red Sox outfielder Jarren Duran hit the Boston streets in teammate Trevor Story's Colorado Rockies jersey. More so, he arrived at Fenway Park in the Rockies' thread ahead of the Red Sox's game against the Kansas City Royals on Friday night.

Story was previously a member of the Rockies, who drafted him in the first round in 2011. The former Rockies infielder made two All-Star selections with the club (2018, 2019). He left his club after the 2021 season and signed a six-year, $140 million contract with the Red Sox.

However, Story has exited this season facing season-ending surgery to repair a fractured glenoid in his shoulder. In his absence, Duran wore Story's Rockies jersey in remembrance of his previous All-Star selections ahead of the Midsummer Classic.

Duran will be playing his first All-Star game on July 16 at Globe Life Field in Arlington. It is a breakout season for Duran, with him hitting.275 along with 22 stolen bases, 10 home runs and 41 RBIs.

Jarren Duran finds trouble with league office over his undershirt and says he's not going to stop

Jarren Duran received a two-page letter from MLB's senior vice president, Michael Hill, warning him not to violate league policies or he will have to pay a fine.

This was in regards to him wearing a custom undershirt with the expletive "F*ck 'Em" written on it. The undershirt was spotted during a postgame interview after he hit a walk-off single in the victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on June 24.

However, Jarren Duran acknowledged he was violating rules set by the MLB but said the meaning behind that undershirt weighs a lot for him, and that's why he is not afraid to pay the fine that comes with it.

“I’m not surprised because, obviously, it’s bad words and bad language,” he said. “It’s understandable. I’m glad they didn’t fine me. They just gave me a warning. If I ever hit a walk-off again, I’ll just take everything off so I don’t get in trouble.
“But that would be a fine I’d be happy to pay. I wouldn’t have a problem paying that fine because it’s just me wearing something that means a lot to me.” (via Mass Live).

Furthermore, Jarren Duran has launched a social media campaign to sell shirts, with the proceeds going to mental health organizations. A link in his bio goes to a Shopify page where the T-shirts are sold for $30.

“I’m gonna try to raise some money and talk to the Red Sox and see where I can donate for some mental health,” Duran said. “I have a couple places in mind. We’re gonna talk it over and see which one we can help out the most.”

Many of Jarren Duran's teammates have also received this shirt as a gift. Another big name includes Boston Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla, who appreciated Duran's gesture.
