Red Sox rookie Hunter Dobbins responded to a story from The New York Post that he made false claims about his father's pro career.

Dobbins told the Boston Herald he would rather “retire” than play for the Yankees, citing how his father, Lance, had been drafted twice by the Yankees and traded to the Arizona Diamondbacks.

At the end of the day, it’s just from my dad and what I kind of grew my love for the game.
