Whether it was at Alex Rodriguez baseball games or Jennifer Lopez’s singing events, the couple remained devoted to each other, serving as a source of inspiration for many. However, during their dating days, the pop-singer sided with her then-fianc? team’s rival, Boston Red Sox, betraying the Yankees legend.
Jennifer has a strong passion for sports, and whenever she had the opportunity, she would attend baseball games while she was in a relationship with him. A few years back, while watching the New York Yankees and Red Sox Games, she suddenly vibed with a Red Sox tradition, shocking the Yankees fans.

Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees have been rivals for decades, and this rivalry is even spread among their fans. These two teams have their traditions, but they never vibe on each other’s traditions. During a 2018 Red Sox and Yankees game, the pop-singer vibed on the Red Sox ‘Sweet Caroline’ despite dating a Yankees legend. Though it apparently seemed like a betrayal, it was not as she had her emotional bonding with the song.
She posted a video of herself enjoying ‘Sweet Caroline,’ the eighth inning anthem played at Fenway Park since 1997. Though Yankees fans never sang the song or vibed with it, JLo did. The Shotgun Wedding actress shared her backstory with this song through an Instagram post, which has already been taken down.
Although she dated a Yankees legend, she had her childhood memory with this song that she couldn’t neglect. She shared that this song came out around the time of her birth. So, her parents often used to sing this song to her after her birth.
In a YT video from 5 years back, explaining how her parents changed the ‘Sweet Caroline’ part with ‘Sweet Jennifer, the singer said, “So, whenever I hear it, I see a picture in my mind of my mommy and daddy singing to me as a baby, and it always makes me happy inside and smile real big on the outside.” Later she even sang the Sweet Caroline with her mom.
