Cam Schlittler, the 25-year-old right-hander for the New York Yankees, is set to make his first career start at Fenway Park on April 23. The pitcher from Walpole, Massachusetts, who has a 1.95 ERA in five starts this season, has faced death threats from Boston Red Sox fans ahead of the game. The animosity between Schlittler and Red Sox fans intensified after his impressive performance in the 2022 AL wild-card series, where he struck out 12 batters in eight shutout innings. Schlittler acknowledged the aggressive nature of the rivalry, stating, "They just picked the wrong guy to do it to," referring to the taunts from fans. Despite the tension, he attended a Boston Bruins game recently, indicating some ties to New England. As he prepares for the game, Schlittler anticipates a hostile environment at Fenway Park, stating that he expects the fans to be even more vocal than before.
