In case you haven’t noticed, David Price likes to mess with the media — especially about “Fortnite.”
The Boston Red Sox pitcher, fairly or not, has been criticized for his love of “Fortnite,” the immensely popular battle royale video game.

Well, that trend continued Tuesday night after Price picked up a win in his team’s 9-1 victory over the Los Angeles Angels.
