Justin Verlander bats away Phillies fans before Game 3 of the World Series
Read Time:1 Minute, 6 Second
Phillies fans were convinced Justin Verlander got anything but a warm welcome when he showed up at the stadium for Game 3 of the World Series … and the ace responded by turning them over!!
The playful moment went down as the Houston Astros team bus headed to Citizens Bank Park for Monday night’s game … and as it drove past a group of Philadelphia fans, JV decided to show off.
The fans loved it … one person even said, “It was awesome!!”
Oh, hey, there you go @JustinVerlander walking into Citizens Bank Park for Game 3 of the World Series and flipping Phillies fans the bird not once, but TWICE. #GoPhillies #GoPhils #Philly #Philadelphia # Phyllis @barstoolsports @BarstoolPhilly @NBCPhiladelphia pic.twitter.com/K1BByHAorY

But as soon as Justin got off the bus, he gave a thumbs up before doubling down on the gesture – again pointing at the bird with a big smile on his face.
“Hey, this is for you!!” Verlander said.
The fans roared … and it was clear that the whole interaction was in good fun.
It won’t be as much fun when the Astros and Phillies take the field in a few hours – the series is currently tied 1-1 … and both teams will be looking to take the lead.
