Talking about someone’s mom is the backbone of trash talk. The heckler probably didn’t even know the guys mom died 8 years prior.

This story is still confusing. What did the fan mean by sending his mom a text? Did the fan know that his mom was dead? I still have more questions than answers, so I'm still unsure how much sympathy to give this player.

I highly doubt it, Marte was just overly sensitive about generic trash talk

I’m not giving any sympathy after this. People were acting like the kid directly made a comment about his mom dying. Thats obviously not what happened. This is pathetic and everyone that freaked out owe the fan an apology

I feel bad for the guy, but his skin is extremely thin for being a professional athlete. Dealing with assholes comes with the territory.

There is a line and it was crossed. Don't make it the player's fault for shitty human beings who weren't raised right.

What was the line that was crossed?

Seriously, Clark? You don't know what line was crossed? No wonder there are people out there crossing it.

This is weak. Marte seems like a sissy. He'd be crying every day at the plant.
