Wait for the details on this. There is now a report that Jeff Nelson attacked the groundskeeper when he cheered a Sox play. He allegedly has cleat wounds on his back.

From ESPN:

"A Red Sox spokesman issued a statement later saying that Williams (the grounds keeper) had merely double-pumped to the crowd, and was taken down by members of the Yankees' bullpen. "It seems to be an attack and a beating unwarranted," said the spokesman.

The grounds keeper was taken away in the ambulance to be examined..."



Reportedly the Boston Red Sox have asked MLB to investigate.
