The founder and CEO of Dodgers fan group Pantone 294, Alexander Soto, purchased billboard space next to Fenway Park to rub the Mookie Betts trade in Red Sox fans’ faces.
.@alexuur's favorite memory was @mookiebetts' home run in the 2020 World Series and in return, he wanted to show some love to Boston. #ThankYouBoston

“I think it was a really nice gesture by them to show their gratitude,” Roberts said with a smile Monday.
