While interviewing Red Sox catcher Michael Jackson about Boston’s Tuesday win over the Detroit Tigers, Fox Sports sportscaster Erin Andrews asked Jackson about playing against Tigers pitcher Justin Verlander. However, instead of saying Verlander, it sounds like she slipped up and said Bieber.
While this is most likely an honest slip of the tongue, Twitter started shouting that she clearly has a crush on the singer and admonishing her for misspeaking. Andrews responded to the jibes with a couple of responses.
My lord..people are unreal RT @NDisch: “@pvdj: @ErinAndrews did you almost say Justin Bieber instead of Verlander in post game interview?”
