Cubs' Crow-Armstrong Thrives Amid Dodgers' Booing

Chicago Cubs Outfielder, Pete Crow Armstrong, faced a wall of booze from Dodgers fans Friday

night at Dodgers Stadium during their 6-4 comeback, win.

The rookie center-fielder stirred it up back in late February, with comments calling out

some LA fans for just snapping picks at games instead of truly, engaging like Chicago supporters

do.

He doubled down on a podcast, comparing Dodgers Stadium crowds to folks showing a court

side at Lakers Games just to look good.

Chicago Armstrong grew up in Los Angeles, son of actors, attended Harvard West Lake,

and spent tons of time at Dodgers Games rooting for guys like Clayton.

Kershaw and Matt Kempophore's dad, an Illinois native, turned him into a Cubs fan.

Dodgers fans made sure he felt it, booing every ad bat, and even their social media team

trolled him after his first strikeout.

But he clarified it was never about the players.

He shouted out respect for manager Dave Roberts, Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman, and

Shohei Otani.

Attendants hit 53,000, all 733, another sellout.

In the game, Crow Armstrong lined a key single in the ninth, setting up Danzby Swanson's

walk-off homer against the shaky Dodgers bull pin.

This spring, he locked in a 6-year, $115 million extension with the Cubs, praising their

fans for sticking by him through.

Slumps.

The rivalries heating up, with Crow Armstrong thriving in the noise and ready for more

back and forth all weekend.

When he loves the energy, win, or, or an example, lose.
