Johan Rojas responds to boos and avoids controversy over statements about Lidom umpires

Santo Domingo.- The Giants of Cibao outfielder, Johan Rojas, spoke after last night's game and reacted to the boos he received from the Tigres del Licey fans, assuring that he is not affected and that, on the contrary, he takes it as an additional motivation on the field.

“Well, I never… I haven't been the only one booed here or in the world. That serves me as motivation and nothing, blessings to them,” the player expressed calmly, downplaying the situation.

Avoid revisiting the controversy about the referees During the conference, Rojas was questioned again about the recent statements he made regarding the arbitration in the Lidom, when he criticized decisions made during a previous game. Faced with the question of whether the League had any approach with him after those comments, the player preferred not to elaborate. You may be interested in: "Respectfully, I have no comment on your question. You can ask me again later," he responded, making it clear that for now he does not wish to revisit that topic which generated multiple reactions on social media and among fans. Would you wear the blue jersey again? Another point that came up was the possibility that Rojas, in a hypothetical scenario where Licey reaches the final again and the Gigantes do not, could accept to play with the blue team if they call him, as happened before. The baseball player responded without hesitation.

“I don't have any… I mean, at the end of the day, I'm a ballplayer and what interests me is winning. I want to lift the crown with the Gigantes del Cibao”.
